[Verse 1]
Well, I can hear the world a-turning
To the sound of a broken wheel
And I listen as I learn how to feel
Well, somewhere there's a shattered window
Reflecting the both of us
Showing seven different shades of lust and trust

[Chorus]
Sweet embrace
All my days
I've been holding on
I'd give it all, but they just wanna take
Sweet embrace
All my days
I've been holding on
I'd give it all, but this world just wants to take

[Post-Chorus]
Sorrow, sorrow, let me go
Sorrow, sorrow, let me go

[Verse 2]
Birds of singing songs in morning
The songs of sticks and worms
As I'm waiting for that broken wheel to turn
Staring at my own reflection
Wondering what I'd see
If I let my imperfections get a hold of me
[Pre-Chorus]
Sorrow, sorrow, let me go
Sorrow, sorrow, let me go

[Chorus]
Sweet embrace
All my days
I've been holding on
I'd give it all, but they just wanna take
Sweet embrace
All my days
I've been holding on
I'd give it all, but this world just wants to take

[Chorus]
(Sorrow, sorrow)
Sweet embrace
All my days
(Sorrow, sorrow)
I've been holding on
I'd give it all, but they just wanna take
(Sorrow, sorrow)
Sweet embrace
All my days
(Sorrow, sorrow)
I've been holding on
I'd give it all, but this world just wants to take
