Two Worlds Collide Lyrics

I steal to feed
I fight to breathe
Through hunger not greed
I find these days it's the only way I can survive

What have I done with my life?
Is this the end, when two worlds collide?

In this dusty city
With all the gods on the hill
Will not one of them help us?
The temple which they built is an empty shell

The people who I see
Scurrying on the streets
Oblivious to our needs
I wonder sometimes how so many could be so blind?

What have I done with my life?
Is this the end, when two worlds collide?
What have I done with my life?
Is this the end, when two worlds collide?

Today I stole the sun from the sky
The color from the heart of a rose
Today I took food from the hand of a starving child

What have I done with my life?
Is this the end, when two worlds collide?
What have I done with my life?
Is this the end, when two worlds collide?

I guess that makes me a bad man
I guess that makes me a bad man
I guess that makes me a bad man

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

It's about the division between rich and poor, upper and lower classes, the 99% and the 1%. It makes the point by alternating points of view between the two.
