The World at Large Lyrics Artist(Band):Modest Mouse
If the world's at large, why should I remain? Walked away to another plan. Gonna find another place, maybe one I can stand. I move on to another day, to a whole new town with a whole new way. Went to the porch to have a thought. Got to the door and again, I couldn't stop. You don't know where and you don't know when. But you still got your words and you got your friends. Walk along to another day. Work a little harder, work another way. Well uh-uh baby I ain't got no plan. We'll float on maybe would you understand? Gonna float on maybe would you understand? Well I'll float on maybe would you understand? The days get shorter and the nights get cold. I like the autumn but this place is getting old. I pack up my belongings and I head for the coast. It might not be a lot but I feel like I'm making the most. The day's get longer and the nights smell green. I guess it's not surprising but it's spring and I should leave. I like songs about drifters - books about the same. They both seem to make me feel a little less insane. Walked on off to another spot. I still haven't got anywhere that I want. Did I want love? Did I need to know? Why does it always feel like I'm caught in an undertow? The moths beat themselves to death against the lights. Adding their breeze to the summer nights. Outside, water like air was great. I didn't know what I had that day. Walk a little farther to another plan. You said that you did, but you didn't understand. I know that starting over is not what life's all about. But my thoughts were so loud, I couldn't hear my mouth. My thoughts were so loud, I couldn't hear my mouth. My thoughts were so loud.

Review about The World at Large steve o | Reviewer: Anonymous | 4/19/09 This song makes me think about our human qualities. Sometimes we make random decisions, and go along with it acting on impulse. He kept walking, drifting, searching for something, anything. Couldn't really find what he wanted because he didn't know. Great fucking song. Really appeals to emotion. The World At Large | Reviewer: Anonymous | 4/14/09 This song, in my own opinion, touches this place that's somewhere in between bittersweet, happiness, and humility. The long instrumental piece allows the listener a form of reflection after the subtle message is played. Try not to sing along, try not to move your head to the bass. Sit there, and listen. Take in the words that are spoken, even if you do not understand it, and listen to the supporting music. You can only then understand this song's full message. Hmmmm | Reviewer: lou | 4/7/09 omg i like so love this song like no way its amazing and like really cool like the feelings and emotions it has to it like omg yeah thats what i think about this song and like if you haven't heard it your so missing out like i am not even joking so like go to you tube and like check it out like yeahhh :) MM fan 99... | Reviewer: Anonymous | 4/5/09 Why would you call someone "retarded" just because their interpretation of a song is different from yours?? I'm sure your genius Isaac Brock would say it's open to interpretation for each listener. Let people take from it whatever they want. It's music, that's the point! You must be a child... did i want love? | Reviewer: Anonymous | 4/1/09 so he's a drifter and he's searching for something unattainable, a comfortable position; a perfect lean in the classroom seat? i think that its everyone; we turn left or right and we can't escape the hurt or little sufferings. The undertow is precisely the origin of the song. Rejoice to the fact that life keeps moving and that being bored is when we feel like there isnt one. much love, T whistle | Reviewer: Anonymous | 3/12/09 what does being emo have anything to do with this song. that was of no importance. but modest mouse needs tons of thumbs up, i can relate to this song in almost every direction with my current standing. good thing to cope with. Yeah.. | Reviewer: xXCiCiCupcakezXx | 2/16/09 Im an emo girl.. I have been finding myself listening to this song everything. Modest Mouse has ALWAYS been a favorite of mine. When i was younger, my parents would play Modest Mouse. And one day i was listening to the radio and The world at Large came on. And i was thinking to myself.. If the worlds at large.. why should i remain.. It makes PERFECT sense. If the world is going to do nothing to but cry and hurt. why would i want to be here? Just because im emo, doesnt mean im limited to a certain music genre. This song is my all time favorite. It amazes me in every different way. Love, Sierra everything | Reviewer: Robert | 2/11/09 first off, Craig, i agree. I first started listening Modest Mouse back in 04'. My English teacher Matt Treski, played music during his class, even during big test and stuff. but he put on modest mouse one day and i heard something unique for once. i fell in love with their sound. the first song i have experienced from them was Neverending Math Equation. The lyrics were so different. I used to listen to nothing but death metal. but they got me cross over a bit and explore their genre. but as far as funeral's go, i want mine to be party. everyone needs to drink a couple and twist a couple up for me. LIVE LIFE, BE HAPPY...... No reason, so why try? 'Cause we can | Reviewer: Jen | 1/16/09 When I listen to this song it makes me step back and look at my life. Every year i get knew friends, teachers, games, books, etc. But why can't i keep myself satisfied with life? I mean i'm supposedly changeing, and growing up, but am i really? I feel like i keep trying to move on, change my tactics, look at things in a different way; but everything is so emty, i still can't see any reason to my life or life itself. I guess in the end there isn't any reason, i guess we just got to keep falling and standing up. Love life hate, the living i always say. In a Way | Reviewer: Ryan | 12/11/08 some people find this song in sync with theyre life. personally, i dont, but this song is still amazing. it seems like this song is about finding what you are looking for, but never do. other people might think differently, so let them. but this is a truley good song Review By Pages: 1 2 3 Review the song The World at Large The area is only for review, if you want to submit the lyrics or the corrections of the lyrics, please click the link at the end of the lyrics.
