Verse 1

Turn on channel 7 at a quarter to eight,
You see the same damn thing it's just a different day and
No one really knows why this is happening, but it's happening.
And everywhere you go it's just a different place,
You get the same dark feelings, see the same sad faces,
No one really cares that this is happening. 

Pre-Chorus 1

G* D* Am* C*
We come into this world and we are all the same
Em* D* C C*
And in that moment there's no one to blame.

Chorus

But the world is black and hearts are cold
And there's no hope, that's what we're told.
And we can't go back, it won't be the same,
Forever changed by the things we've said, said.

Verse 2

Living in this place it's always been this way,
There's no one doing nothing so there's nothing changed and
I can't live when this world just keeps dying, it's dying.
People always tell me this is part of the plan,
That God's got everybody in his hands but
I could only pray that God is listening, is He listening?

Pre-Chorus 2

G* D* Am* C*
We're living in this world, growing colder everyday,
Em* D* C C*
Nothing can stay perfect, now I say.

Chorus

But the world is black and hearts are cold
And there's no hope, that's what we're told.
And we can't go back, it won't be the same
Forever changed by the things we've said, said, said ...

Pre-Chorus 3

We come into this world and we are all the same
And in that moment there's no one to blame.
But we're living in this world, growing colder every day,
Nothing can stay perfect, now I say. 

Chorus

Em* G*
The world is black and hearts are cold
D* Am
And there's no hope, that's what were told.
And we can't go back, it won't be the same
Forever changed by the things we've said, said, said. 

Outro

Turn on channel 7 at a quarter to eight
You see the same damn thing it's just a different day and
C D Em*
No one really knows why this is happening.
