The World Wasn't Kind

Intro

(Laughter)

Verse 1

Don't the stars still shine?

Don't the sun still rise?

Can I see you in your eyes?

'Cause they're still open

Did the world mistreat?

Did it tear at me?

Did it burn what it couldn't eat?

'Cause it's still smokin'

Pre-Chorus

And I never saw it coming

It still haunts me, this horrific way

I was never good at running

But I'd run a thousand miles today

Chorus

To be your bestest friend

To see you once again

To hold the hands of the one I lost unexpectedly

You were the red to my blue

I'd give the world to you

But it wasn't kind, so it broke you down, it stole you from me

You were the red to my blue

You were the red to my blue

Verse 2

Will the leaves still fall?

Will the rain still pour?

Did the world ask you for more

Than it was worth?

Did it take your breath?

Did it beat your chest?

Did it tell you that there's nothing left?

Did you ask if it's a curse?

Pre-Chorus

'Cause I never saw it coming

It still haunts me, this horrific way

We were always good at laughing

But there's no laughter in my heart today

Chorus

To be your bestest friend

To see you once again

To hold the hands of the one I lost unexpectedly

You were the red to my blue

I'd give the world to you

But it wasn't kind, so it broke you down, it stole you from me

You were the red to my blue

You were the red to my blue

Bridge

And if I could see you in your eyes

Maybe I could understand why

And if I could hold you for one night

Maybe I could say goodbye

But I'd rather keep this wound wide open

'Cause the scar would mean you're really gone

Chorus

To be your bestest friend

To see you once again

To hold the hands of the one I lost unexpectedly

You were the red to my blue

I'd give the world to you

But it wasn't kind, so it broke you down, it stole you from me

You were the red to my blue

Outro

To be your bestest friend

To see you once again

To hold the hands of the one I lost unexpectedly

You were the red to my blue

I'd give the world to you

But it wasn't kind, so it broke you down, it stole you from me

You were the red to my blue

You were the red to my blue
