The forests are burning, the water's high
The roof's caving in where the children lie
Sin's haunting the hills that I'm driving through
I've tried to forget but I always knew
There's no way around it
This world is broken
And I've felt it all my life
Can't tell the day from the dead of night
There's death on the tracks of a backwood train
Carrying bottles to numb the pain
We're pressed against the anvil of the cold truth
We all know someone gone too soon
There's no way around it
This world is broken
I've felt it all my life
Can't tell the day from the dead of night
There's no way around it
This world is broken
I've felt it all my life
Can't tell the day from the dead of night
There's no way around it
This world is broken
But if You've been here all of my life
Show me the day in the dead of night
Show me the day in the dead of night
Would You lead the way, will You help me try
When I can't tell the day from the dead of night
