Out here watching stars, wonder if they watch me
Wonder what they dream about, wonder what they see
World gone mad with greed and jealousy
It's never enough, it's never gonna be
It's not for the faint-hearted, it's all a rat race
Since the day it started, moving so fast
Everything's a blur, nothing's what you've heard
And it's all over for the chase, this world's a cruel place
The world's a cruel place
This world's a cruel place
Out here watching stars, wonder if they watch me
Wonder if they've got some kind of remedy
Wonder if you think about what we could've been
Before you threw all it away and all those shiny things
Everybody wants it all
Whatever it takes, this world's a cruel place
It's not for the faint-hearted, it's all a rat race
Since the day it started, this world's a cruel place
This world's a cruel place
The world's a cruel place
This world's a cruel place
