Where In The World
Matt Monro Lyrics

The soul is up for hire, we sold out the heart.
Our inner selves can easily be bought and sold for profit, at the expense of neglecting our emotional well-being.

The truth lies deep under our skin,
We often conceal our true feelings or thoughts underneath a facade that we present to the world.

Bite the hand that gives, kiss the hand that takes.
We often show gratitude to those who don't deserve it, while being ungrateful to those who help us the most.

Where in the world can I turn and look to? Things never change they fade away.
The world feels like a bleak and unchanging place, leaving us feeling disillusioned and lost.

The Church of Love ... it's law and disorder.
Even though love should bring order and structure to our lives, instead it often brings chaos and confusion.

We're meant to give more than we take.
As human beings, it is our responsibility to contribute positively to the world and to those around us.

Calling Gods on high, it's in your name millions die, Silenced those who scream, no golden cold image can redeem, The tongue tells lies, minds deceive.
The idea of religious wars and conflict has led to countless deaths, with those in power silencing the cries of those in need. Even religious symbols or words cannot make up for the lies that have been told and the harm that has been caused.

I turn around and see a finger pointing at me.
When we see others being held accountable, it is natural to feel as though the finger of blame may point towards us as well.

Where cheating hearts can kneel and pray.
Places of worship can be corrupted by individuals who act immoral or unethical, despite their religious affiliations.

Put your feet on the water, play Jesus for the day...
Sometimes people try to act like they are morally superior or unselfish, but in reality they are simply putting on a show for others to see.

They say the times are a changin', we've woken to our ignorance, truly I believe but I find it hard to see.
While society may be changing to become more inclusive and accepting, it can be difficult to see the progress when there is still so much work to be done.
