 The open wound she hides

She just keeps it bundled up

 And never lets it show

She can't take much more of this

 But she can't let it go

 And that's ok, she don't want the world

All the things she says

While he's just lying there

 Without someone to hear her cry

She slips off into a dream

 About a place to hide

 And that's ok, she don't want the world

 This love she feels

Everything she's ever known

 Or ever thought was real

Seems like it's been thrown away

 Now how's she gonna live

 It's ok, she don't want the world

 Those words he never spoke

Haunt her life, the memories

 Of all the times before

She tried to show him love

 While he would only ask for more

 But it's ok, she don't want the world

 Softly in her sleep

Pictures of the life she's longing

 For slowly appear

She's seen them all before

 But somehow never quite this clear

 She just smiles, she don't want the world

 This love she feels

Everything she's ever known

 Or ever thought was real

Seems like it's been thrown away

 Now how's she gonna live

 It's ok, she don't want the world

 A brand new morning shines

As she wakes up alone again

 This time to face the day

She swears there's time to make it

 As she simply walks away

 And it's ok, she don't want the world
