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
