This World

This world, this world
It isn't enough for me
When heaven is so out of reach
I see, I see
You love life more than me
It is never how it should be
I need, I need
You to tell me how to be
I'm painting the sky for you and me
So far, so far
I can taste it on your tongue
The words you've said in all the songs I've sung

Compare me to the sea
To rhyme in poetry
I'm done fighting you
Compare me to the sea
To rhyme in poetry
I'm done fighting you

Too late, too late
To live any other way
When all I have to give is company
I know, I know
I don't mind being on my own
If I'm not free then what is left of me

Compare me to the sea
To rhyme in poetry
I'm done fighting you
Compare me to the sea
To rhyme in poetry
I'm done fighting you

To give you everything is not what I want
When I'm living how always knew I would be
To give you everything is not what I want
When I'm living how I should be

Compare me to the sea
To rhyme in poetry
I'm done fighting you
Compare me to the sea
To rhyme in poetry
I'm done fighting you
