They taught him right and what to believe
How to live by the rules
They all restrained his hungry heart
With time he would conceiveWalked the path of a righteous man
Taught him how to belong
A winding road, and now it seemsCHORUS:
No, the world is on my shoulders
(I am the one against the world)
I'm the one against the world
(I am the one against the world)
The one they lead astray
But I'll know till my dying day
The only one against the world
Never stray from our way of life
Vent your anger within
Betrayal, it makes a bitter man
The truth cuts like knivesNow look at him and what he's become
He still kneels for them all
A broken pawn, about to fallCHORUS
There he stands alone again
Watch his world becomes unreal
Forever astrayCHORUS
Against the world
The world
