What a Life Lyrics

There's a man on my streets
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 it ends
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
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 it ends
in my heart of hearts
I hope you'll understand

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 it ends
in my heart of hearts
I hope you'll understand.
