Type O Negative – World Coming Down lyrics

She thinks i'm iron man that i don't feel pain
i don't understand why joy must be feigned
i'm so fortunate yet filled with self hate
that the mirror shows - me an ingrate

I could easily start pointing fingers
since the blame is mine it always lingers
that the truth it lies in my reflection
though this can't go on - there's no question

Yeah i know
that my world is coming down
yeah i know - i know - i'm the one who brought it down - brought it down - bring it on down

How quickly pass the days - long is night
lying in bed - awake - bathed in starlight
better to live - as king - of beasts
than as a lamb - scared - and weak

I will deny - my role - as - a human
holding myself - hostage - with no - demands
it's better to burn - quickly - and bright
than slowly and dull - without - a fight

Well - i know - mmm - that my world is coming down - mmm - mmm
now i know - i know - i'm the one that brought it down - brought it down - bring it on down

I know - that my world is coming down
yeah i know - i know - i'm the one who brought it down - brought it down
yeah i know - and my world is coming down
yeah i know - i know - i'm the one who brought it down - brought it down - bring it on down

Ooh - wahhh - ooh - wahhh - ooh - wahhh - oooooooooah
i know - that my world is coming down
yeah i know i know - i'm the one who brought down - brought it down - bring it on down

Ooh - wahhh - ooh - wahhh - ooh - wahhh - oooooooooah
ooh - wahhh - ooh - wahhh - ooh - wahhh - oooooooooah
ooh - wahhh - ooh - wahhh - ooh - wahhh - oooooooooah - ooh wahh
