"World As It Is" lyrics

"World As It Is"

The world as you'd have it and the world as it is
Sliding in and out of focus, does it ever, does it ever get to fit
The world as you'd have it and the world as it seems
Keep a sense of the sadness, but drive it out of your dreams
Grit your teeth and say
World as it is, world as it is

I've arrived at the point somewhere in between
The person that I wanted to be and the person I've been
Something's eating me today, but the question mark in my guts says there's Hell to pay
I grit my teeth and say
World as it is, world as it is

The world as you'd have it, the world that you see
The world as we'd have it is the world as it will be
