What a Life
There's a man
On my street
Every morning wakes up late
When he wakes up
He sees what he's become
Slaps his shoes on his feet
Shuts the door and leaves
Working his whole life
Oh what a life
We believe that heaven's gone
To a place we don't belong
In a song that makes us sad
In a world that's going mad
We believe in what we want
Cause it hurts us to be wrong
If i break before the end
In my heart of hearts
I hope you'll understand
There's a school
Up my street
With some kids i know
As blameless the snow
The falling snow
Then a man
Half insane
Shoots up half the school before taking his own life
What a life
We believe that heaven's gone
To a place we don't belong
In a song that makes us sad
In a world that's going mad
We believe in what we want
Cause it hurts us to be wrong
If i break before the end
In my heart of hearts
I hope you'll understand
Wake me up when all the people wanna change
Wake me up when all the people wanna change
Wake me up when all the people wanna change
These cops are on the streets there's people breaking into stores
The sky is falling all around us, and there's one place left to go
Cause i believe in something better, something we were born to receive
And i don't care what anyone says cause i believe
We believe that heaven's gone
To a place we don't belong
In a song that makes us sad
In a world that's going mad
We believe in what we want
Cause it hurts us to be wrong
If i break before the end
In my heart of hearts
I hope you'll understand
On my street
Every morning wakes up late
When he wakes up
He sees what he's become
Slaps his shoes on his feet
Shuts the door and leaves
Working his whole life
Oh what a life
We believe that heaven's gone
To a place we don't belong
In a song that makes us sad
In a world that's going mad
We believe in what we want
Cause it hurts us to be wrong
If i break before the end
In my heart of hearts
I hope you'll understand
There's a school
Up my street
With some kids i know
As blameless the snow
The falling snow
Then a man
Half insane
Shoots up half the school before taking his own life
What a life
We believe that heaven's gone
To a place we don't belong
In a song that makes us sad
In a world that's going mad
We believe in what we want
Cause it hurts us to be wrong
If i break before the end
In my heart of hearts
I hope you'll understand
Wake me up when all the people wanna change
Wake me up when all the people wanna change
Wake me up when all the people wanna change
These cops are on the streets there's people breaking into stores
The sky is falling all around us, and there's one place left to go
Cause i believe in something better, something we were born to receive
And i don't care what anyone says cause i believe
We believe that heaven's gone
To a place we don't belong
In a song that makes us sad
In a world that's going mad
We believe in what we want
Cause it hurts us to be wrong
If i break before the end
In my heart of hearts
I hope you'll understand
