(Verse 1)
I’m young — and I keep dreaming still
Of a world where I could just feel real
I’ve been through so many roads
Seen too many heavy loads
Still chasing what no one can fulfill

(Pre-Chorus)
Does anyone feel what I feel?
This silent pain I try to conceal...
Am I the only one drowning in this cry?
Or are there others asking why?

(Chorus)
Oh world, why are you so cruel?
We were meant to shine, to be your jewel.
We were made to carry heaven in our soul...
But all we taste is bitterness untold.

(Verse 2)
The world is crumbling before our eyes
And no one moves to calm our cries
Madness spreads like poisoned air
While hearts break everywhere

(Bridge)
The lands I dreamed I’d walk one day
Now burn because we lost our way
So much hate we fail to see...
Tell me — what about you and me?

(Chorus)
Oh world, why are you so cruel?
We were meant to shine, to be your jewel.
We were made to carry heaven in our soul...
But all we taste is bitterness untold.

(Outro)
Yes — the world feels broken, it’s true
But maybe the fault lies in me and you
We shattered what was heaven-born…
Can we still mend what we have torn?

What about you and me
