Lyrics
(Verse 1)
How are you? I am fine...
Cue the smile and walk away
So much more we both wanted to say
Look at you, look at me
Will we ever truly see
Past the fear of our own make believe?
(Verse 2)
Can't walk a mile in this town
Without seeing someone fall
Walk on by, shrug off why, blame them all
See them sit on the floor
With their signs asking for more
We say, "Oh, the nerve; they deserve to be poor"
(Verse 3)
To end suspense we build a fence
That opens if you pass the test
Sing and see if you belong with the best
Like circus clowns we wear a frown
When the lights have gone down
Scared to be thought absurd by the crowd
(Chorus)
Cause it's hard to see through eyes
That judge the heart each time somebody tries
To find a place to escape from the rain
But if we see through eyes of grace
We'll leave this world a better place
'Til the day when there'll be no more pain
'Til the day Jesus comes back to save
(Bridge)
It's a waste of time to live life
Casting judgment left and right
Leaves us feeling empty deep inside
But if we share a little care
We can fight against despair
Light a flame of hope beyond compare
(Chorus)
Cause it's hard to see through eyes
That judge the heart each time somebody tries
To find a place to escape from the rain
But if we see through eyes of grace
We'll leave this world a better place
'Til the day when there'll be no more pain
'Til the day Jesus comes back to save
