I'm looking out from my window,
Staring out as the world goes pulling by, like in a dream,
Gangs in the street are fighting,
Some people think living is dying,
An innocent life lets out a scream.

This isn't the way life was supposed to be,
It wasn't like this in the beginning,
This isn't the way life was supposed to be,
A world cries, and in these eyes I see a fallen world falling all around me.

Out here people are hating,
Down the street someone is praying,
Some shake their fists in agony,
Crying out to their creator,
It's gotta change sooner or later, but things just seem to stay the same.

This isn't the way life was supposed to be,
It wasn't like this in the beginning, (this is a fallen world)
This isn't the way life was supposed to be,
A world cries, and in these eyes I see a fallen world falling all around me.

All around me,
All around me.

I'm looking out from my window, staring out as the world goes,
Trying to figure out in my mind,
Why can't we start living in the hope that God's giving'
The hope our hearts were meant to find.

This isn't the way life was supposed to be,
It wasn't like this in the beginning, (this is a fallen world)
This isn't the way life was supposed to be,
A world cries, and in these eyes I see a fallen world falling all around me,
A world cries, and in these eyes I see a fallen world falling all around me.

Looking out from my window.
