Nobody loves me Everyone lies Not long ago That was the world in my eyes
Love is suspicious Hate is for real They’re all the reason For the pain that I feel They are all guilty Until they die Not long ago That was the world in my eyes
I am a genius You are all fools You are not human So you can’t say I’m cruel I am the victim How can you cry? Not long ago That was the world in my eyes In my eyes
Love is true power Nothing’s as strong I look at my past How could I be so wrong? Hatred was my life My hate has died Now I can see Now that’s the world in my eyes
In my hilariously terrible old band, I wrote a song called The World In My Eyes. It was nasty, cynical, and dumb, but you know what? I actually managed to make a pretty nice string arrangement. So I rewrote the lyrics to be not terrible, and here they are.
