New World

Lives in a little lonely town No one's around except for the drinking Nobody ever gets around But those who leave the township sinking May you rot in heaven Gotta be home by seven And the field burns away The sky breathes it in So why sit and wait for the new world to begin I'm comin' out across your border With new orders for you to take I'd really like to take out your daughter Down in the water, down by the lake When the cold water's on her skin I can feel how long it's been And the neighbors will all be there And no one will know what to wear So why sit and wait for the world to begin I got a lot I gotta do Just to get through the end of the day It hardly ever even happens But I go to sleep the same anyway And you can't believe in yourself You can't believe in anyone else So why sit and wait for the new world to begin --- New World - Soul Asylum
