A lost and dead world
But it's not the one
That you and I
That we started from
And when you said
"You're the best part of me"
How could I believe
What I could not see?
You took my world and built it strong
You made me think nothing was wrong
You took my heart and led me on
And then ran away
The vacant look behind your eyes
A bitter truth I couldn't find
I mistook all your heartfelt lies
So I ran away
Now my world keeps on spinnin'
Though nothing here's livin'
'Cause of what you put me through
That's World War You
Dreams started to fade
As the sun went down
The sea of your disdain
Made my happiness drown
I heard your siren's call
And thought you might be the one
'Til you proved to me
You could never love
You took my world and built it strong
You made me think nothing was wrong
You took my heart and led me on
And then ran away
The vacant look behind your eyes
A bitter truth I couldn't find
I mistook all your heartfelt lies
So I ran away
Now my world keeps on spinnin'
Though nothing here's livin'
'Cause of what you put me through
That's World War You
You took my world and built it strong
You made me think nothing was wrong
You took my heart and led me on
And then ran away
The vacant look behind your eyes
A bitter truth I couldn't find
I mistook all your heartfelt lies
So I ran away
Now my world keeps on spinnin'
Though nothing here's livin'
'Cause of what you put me through
My mind keeps on pacin'
The steps I'm retracin'
'Cause of what you put me through
That's World War You
That's World War You
That's World War You
That's World War You
