Ricky Murray - The World Can Wait Lyrics

Noble thinking is taking over me and you
With a contempt for who we are
And because we often don't get far
We have a contempt for the past
But I don't want everything right now
All I need is a purpose

My body's breathing an air of discontent,
Filling my head with polluted ideas
I don't know much about history
I'm busy trying to make my own

Even the little things are getting too much for me
And do I have to do the same every day
While there's a world to explore
But with a master to obey?
In this event, can you go home
But will you please take me with you?

'Cause I need insanity
Help me run off those idle fancies
Pour your soul into a glass of wine
Let your sober thoughts out of jail

The anger and jealousy I've felt when seeing you
With someone else keeps me warm on those cold nights
And each day my mind is employed to
Think for somebody else
I'm not a number let alone a sentient being

My life is fighting a losing battle
With how you perceive reality
Pour your soul into a glass of wine
Let your sober thoughts out of jail
