"If Only" lyrics

"If Only"

It goes like this
I never see the world in colour
(I, I never see the world in colour)
I pray for things I can't afford

I never see the world in colour
I pray for things I can't afford
Cars and clothes, and items on the checklist
Living in a world full of cravings
And addiction where no one is bored

Funny (Funny)
Funny how ungrateful you can be when there's people hungry
People dying every day and your life is lovely
A borderline obsession for a life to be filled with money
If only, if only

I never see the world in colour
I pray for things I can't afford
Lights go out, I'm cold with no electric
Waking up and have nothing for breakfast
An affliction of just being poor

Money (Money)
It's funny how ungrateful you can be when there's people hungry
People dying every day and your life is lovely
A borderline obsession for a life to be filled with money
If only, if only

I never see the world in colour
I pray for things I can't afford
I never see the world in colour
I pray for things I can't afford

Head down 'til you feel fine
But grow in the meantime
Don't feel helpless, helpless
Look forward but rewind
Thank God for the good times
Pray for things I can't afford
Pray for things I can't afford

I never see the world in colour (In colour)
And I, I pray for things I can't afford
I never see the world in colour (In colour, I never see, I never see)
I pray for things I can't afford (I pray for things I can't afford)

I never see the world in colour
I pray for things I can't afford
