World Like That > King

I judge a day by how far the shades can come down
How much more of the light she wants to see when the morning shows its head
I’d understand if I was high but maybe I’ve been low these days
So we talked in the dark 'till there’s nothing on our minds

We say
It’s so strange
These days
Are so strange
So strange

You’re awake to the window try your heart on frozen glass
Here I am in our bed looking after recent pasts
And I don’t know if it works, all I hear’s a whisper talking that work
Surrender to me, here and now I want to spend

These days
Are so strange
These days

We shout for the seasons, follow the lines
Don’t ask the reasons, we just waste the time
I don’t want to live in a world like that
I don’t want to live in a world like that

Where the beat and the rhythm of somebody’s drum
Is making you ask them permission to run
I don’t want to live in a world like that
I don’t want to live in a world like that

It’s ok, I’m alright, I just want to be in my life
Would you, come to bring back those far-off eyes

And lay down in my arms

So we beat to our own drummer in the sun
We ask for nobody’s permission to run
I just want to live in a world like that
Now I’m gunna live in a world like that

When you beat to your own drummer in the sun
You break from the darkness tell everyone
I don’t wanna live in a world like that
I don’t wanna live in a world like that
No, no, I don’t wanna live in a world like that
