"Unfriendly World" lyrics

"Unfriendly World"

An old movie magazine
Go and wrap it in between
Pages yellowing with time
It's tearing up my mind

Plastic snowflake souvenir
A city far from here
But it hasn't moved in years
I'm breaking up inside

Hang on to your girl
'Cause this is an unfriendly world

Birthday cards from years ago
These will kill you slow
Is it worth this pain to grow?
I guess I'll never know

Christmas toys and picture frames
All the photos knocked away
Not to live with day by day
Just a walk down memory lane

So hang on to your girl
'Cause this is an unfriendly world

Business man with nasty tricks
Followers of 666
Fame and fortune made me sick
And I can't get out

Out the window there's a view
Grassy hills and flowers too
Lovers of the chosen view
So maybe me and you

An old movie magazine
Go an wrap it in between
Pages yellowing like me
Will I ever be free?

Hang on to your girl
'Cause this is an unfriendly world
Hang on to your girl
'Cause this is an unfriendly world
