[Verse 1] It's a funny world we call home from where I stand (yeah) Dye your hair and change your clothes just to fit the plan Pick a belief that ain't yours just to find your place Put a mask on every morning just to show your face (woah) Follow dark roads, take the pills, drink until it's numb Like that's the only way to feel like you belong to something Funny world where peace needs chemicals to exist (yeah) Where the default state is war and love's just hit or miss [Hook] It's a funny world to me (yeah) Never fit the frame of any photo I could see Watched it all from outside looking in (woah) Funny world, funny world And I still don't understand [Verse 2] Your goat ain't mine and that's a reason now to fight (woah) The movie that you love is somehow wrong or right Music taste becomes a battlefield at noon Can't respect a different view in the same room (yeah) Changed everything you were just to fit the mold Traded who you were for something you were sold Funny world where judgment comes before the hello Where the first question asked is which side of the line you're on though [Hook - Variation] It's a funny world to me (yeah) Never fit the frame of any photo I could see Watched the wars from outside looking in (woah) Funny world, funny world Funny how it never ends [Verse 3] I watched the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan unfold Watched Russia raise its guns when questions could've been told Same energy from schoolyard beef to bullets in the street (yeah) Cancel culture's just a war with a different kind of heat We were never meant to gang up on our own Never meant to burn a person down and call it home Thirty-six years of watching from my box outside the frame (woah) Funny world keeps turning but it always looks the same [Hook - Variation 2] It's a funny world to me (yeah) Brothers turning on each other over things they'll never see Raised on judgment before we learned to build (woah) Funny world, funny world And we wonder why it's still [Verse 4] What happened to just talking, getting to know someone real Respect don't mean agreeing, just means letting people feel Walk up to the stage and shake a hand you disagree with (yeah) Say it's not for me and leave it there, that's it The games you play the things you love the views you hold inside Don't have to match mine for me to let you ride (woah) Frustration boils over like water on the stove But in the end I guess this world's the only one I know [Outro - drifting, exhausted, quiet] It's a funny world... Funny world, funny world... (yeah) Never fit the frame... Never fit the photo... (woah) But I guess this is just me... Watching from outside... Still here... ...Funny world.
