A Hazardous World
by Billy Sprague

Album: Torn Between Two Worlds

The children play out in the park
Laughing in the face of danger
Lurking in the dark
The nightly news is all the same
The tragedies remind me
Life is not a children's game
The fiery crash, the siren's scream
Sad photographs of bitter scenes
The living ask, "how can it be?"
These days are life and death
And we are balanced in between

I can believe
In a hazardous world
I'm down on my knees
In a hazardous world
With every breath that I breathe
In a hazardous world
I can believe
There's no guarantees
In a hazardous world
Makes no difference to me
In a hazardous world
God sent His own Son to bleed
In a hazardous world
I can believe

The day will come when I will die
But I have reason to believe
There's more than meets the eye
For one man died and lives again
Now in spite of my demise
The Reaper's not so grim
So I will play out in the park
And one day face what's in the dark
Then looking back from there I'll see
Mortality's an angry dog
Missing all his teeth

I can believe
In a hazardous world
I'm down on my knees
In a hazardous world
With every breath that I breathe
In a hazardous world
I can believe
There are no guarantees
In a hazardous world
Makes no difference to me
In a hazardous world
God sent His own Son to bleed
In a hazardous world
I can believe

I can believe
I'm down on my knees
With every breath that I breathe
Yeah, I can believe
There are no guarantees
In a hazardous world
Makes no difference to me
In a hazardous world
God sent His own Son to bleed
In a hazardous world
I can believe
I can believe

The children play out in the park
Children play out in the park
Go on and play out in the park
Go on and play, yeah
Go on and play
