Tell me why there's so much pain today Cause takin' lives is for the gain, or so they say Can't believe it, but they feel this way And that's the way of the world Tell me why it takes a tragedy to see To wake us up and bring us down to our knees Where all the people suffering with disease And that's the way, that's the way, that's the way of the world As the world crashes down, heaven's lookin' better every day As the sun burns to ground, there's got to be another way Is our God looking down, and doesn't feel everybody's pain As the world crashes down, heaven's lookin' better every day Teach the children what it means to love Show them why that we can never give enough Let's work together, we can rise above And change the ways, change the ways, change the ways of the world As the world crashes down, heaven's lookin' better every day As the sky turns to brown, there's got to be another way Is our God looking down, and doesn't feel everybody's pain As the world crashes down, heaven's lookin' better every day As the sky turns to brown As the world crashes down, heaven's lookin' better every day As the sun burns to ground, there's got to be another way Is our God looking down, and doesn't feel everybody's pain As the world crashes down, heaven's lookin' better every day As the sky turns to brown, there's got to be another way Is our God looking down, and doesn't feel everybody's pain As the world crashes down, heaven's lookin' better every day As the world crashes down, heaven's lookin' better every day As the sun burns to ground, there's got to be another way Is our God looking down, and doesn't feel everybody's pain As the world crashes down, heaven's lookin' better every day
