JEWEL lyrics...

Ok, so there's been something bothering me ever since we got JEWEL lyrics translated... it's this part:

Under the grey and square sky
Is filled with all kinds of desires today

But I don't lose sight of the light among them
And can walk, looking forward
Because you always show me
That there remains a purity even in a corner of this city

it makes no sense... it's like it's missing a word or something... what is filled with those desires? it's very confusing...
so i looked up the lyrics on jpopasia n here's what the lyrics look like:

There's a world beneath this sky of grey
That is multiplying every day
With desire and all kinds of greed
And how they all pollute.
In this darkness I cannot lose sight
Of the beauty that endures in light
I can walk beyond the emptiness
Always facing you.


now even tho it has a lot more sense in english i do know that ayu didn't use the word sekai in the lyrics and it pretty much seems like a poor translation...

idk... any help? :/ is there something missing in masa's translation or how is it?
