Change the World
Cold(Year Of The Spider) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You became a part of me
Thinking of the wish you made
To break free
Playing you like I can
Shoving it in your face
This doesn't break your heart
I'm the one to blame
I never wanted to change your world
I always wanted the simple things
And whatever happens now
It can't be real
Thinking that you might betray
My own private fantasy
I'm the one that gives
What you need
Playing you like I can
Shoving it in your face
If this doesn't tear you apart
I'm the one to blame
I never wanted to change your world
I always wanted the simple things
And whatever happens now
It can't be real
I never wanted to change your world
I always wanted the simple things
And whatever happens now
It can't be real
Now you're gone
I feel betrayed
You can't blame me
You walked away
Now you're gone
You can't blame me
You walked away
I never wanted to change your world
I always wanted the simple things
And whatever happens now
It can't be real
I never wanted to change your world
I always wanted the simple things
And whatever happens now
It can't be real
I never wanted to change your world
I always wanted the simple things
And whatever happens now
It can't be real
I never wanted to change your world
I always wanted the simple things
