"I'll paint the sky a pretty picture," he said,
"All the shades of red in the world."
"All of the blood in the world," she said,
"Let it rain on down,
Let it hit the ground,
And stain the world.
Let the blood fall down."
Standing here,
So alone and isolated,
I look through my looking glass,
And I,
Watch the world go by;
Watch the people fall and die;
Watch the sons fill with pride;
Watch the daughters scream and cry.
Standing here,
So alone and isolated,
I look through my looking glass,
And I,
Watch the world fall down;
The world falls down.
A noise in the distance,
An individual that's inconsistence;
So little insignificance.
A baby cries out loud
And a mother falls to her knees,
And her tears rain down
Onto the cold, hard ground.
Their smiles are fading.
A tragic past that won't leave
That causes their hearts to bleed,
And they fall down;
They fall down.
I look through my looking glass,
And I (and I),
Watch the world go by (the world goes by);
Watch the people fall and die (oh, they fall an die);
Watch the sons fill with pride (so much pride);
Watch the daughters scream and cry (they scream and cry).
Standing here,
So alone and isolated,
I look through my looking glass,
And I,
Watch the world fall down (look at it fall);
The world falls down (so far down).
*guitar and keyboard solo*
Look at him standing there,
He's all alone.
His face made of stone
As he raises the gun,
And he lets his tears fall down.
He can't take it anymore,
So he stares into the barrel of their hate.
A loud bang and he hits the floor.
Now at the funeral,
They all stood around that black coffin,
And they couldn't take it anymore,
And they let their tears fall down
Onto the cold, hard ground.
Their hearts fill with guilt,
As they laid the coffin
Into the ground.
All of their minds are on
The letter he wrote;
"Wouldn't it be funny
If the world did the same?
Wouldn't it be ironic
If the world fell down."
I look through my looking glass,
And I (And I, And I, And I),
I watch the world go by (the world went flyin';
I watch the people fall and die (they fell so hard);
I watch the sons fill with pride (it overflowed like a waterfall);
I watch the daughters scream and cry (they screamed so loud);
Now Iâ??m standing here,
Looking through my looking glass
And I watch the world fall down;
The world falls (the world falls) down.
Oh, I look through that lookinâ?? glass
And everything's a mess.
The world is cryin',
Dyin',
Bleedin',
Screamin',
Fallin',
Oh, the world is fallin' down!
So far down,
That is becomes untouchable.
*music softens and slowly fades away*
Now I'm standing here,
Looking through my looking glass
And I watch the world fall down.
The world falls down.
