We're living in the life of comfort
We're living in a world of pain
Spreading the word to make a difference
Your words are cheap, it's still the same
You find it hard to form opinions
It's so much easier to blame
It may be tough finding a reason
And so we all just play the game
The self-obsessed are always second best
And we know this to be true
So while the world, oh while this world keeps on fighting
We'll just watch it on our screens
The self-obsessed are always second best
It's 2 AM, it's all gone blurry
Just give it up, you cannot save us
But we must fight to lift their spirits
Fight back the dark, but we are fading
You find it hard to draw conclusions
It's so much easier to shame
It may be tough making decisions, whoa
So we all just play the game
The self-obsessed are always second best
And we know this to be true
So while the world, oh while this world keeps on burning
We're told to keep calm and carry on
Just sit back down and keep calm and carry on
Said it before and I'll say it again now, whoa
"This world is coming down"
Said it before and I'll say it again and I'll say it again, whoa
"This world is coming down"
I said "This world, this world is coming down"
The self-obsessed are always second best
And we know this to be true
So while the world, oh while this world keeps on fighting
We'll just watch it on our screens
The self-obsessed are always second best
And we know this to be true
So while the world, oh while this world keeps on burning
We're told to keep calm and carry on
Keep calm and carry on
Just keep calm and carry on
Keep calm and carry on
