Yesterday's a paper cup

Never seems to hold enough to quench your thirst

Oh at times a faded wedding dress

A bottle and some cigarettes can't kill the hurt.

She came along and sparked a flame

And now you need someone to blame for all your sins

Oh and sorry's just a waste of time

You're only sad, you got caught lying 'bout where you've been.

You're gonna live in the world you make

You're gonna count every breath you take

You're gonna wish you could undo every mistake

Oh and you're gonna live in the world you make.

Loneliness is not a sin

Love can turn the best of friends to enemies

Oh you wind up in some hotel bar

Peddling a broken heart for company.

You're gonna live in the world you make

You're gonna count every breath you take

You're gonna find yourself a hundred ways to dull the ache

Oh but you're gonna live in the world you make.

Whoa oh-oh...

Whoa oh-oh...

Love is just a plastic ring

Dangling from a broken string in a bedroom drawer

You swore an angel could set you free

Oh if that angel was ever me, not anymore.

You're gonna live in the world you make

You're gonna count every breath you take

You're gonna realize someday it's not too late

Although you're gonna live in the world you make.

Although you're gonna live in the world you make.
