He comes through the door
Different than before,
Sees some things he shouldn't have
I see it in his face, home just ain't the same
He's becoming different man
From the bar... still hear in ringing
... mine, she can still hear screaming
Now she can't find a reason for living
So she's ready to end it now

What is happening, I can't bear to watch
Tell the world to stop, and let me off
Was love supposed to be when the plan
Well it's not, tell the world to stop, and let me off

She stands in the line, hoping that it's time
His job will make it easier
She keeps holding on, trying to be strong
But anyone can see she's hurt
Every night when she enters her building
She wants to cry cause she misses her children
Died inside when her babies stop living
So she's ready to end it now

What is happening, I can't bear to watch
Tell the world to stop, and let me off
Was love supposed to be when the plan
Well it's not, tell the world to stop, and let me off

It's so lonely I've been lost
Will somebody let me off, right now
Are you listening when I pray
Cause we really need a change, right now
It's too dark someone let the sun in
People say a change is coming
Till it comes I guess I'll keep running
Cause I'm ready to leave here now

What is happening, I can't bear to watch
Tell the world to stop, and let me off
Was love supposed to be when the plan
Well it's not, tell the world to stop, and let me off [x4]

Was love supposed to be when the plan
Well it's not, tell the world to stop, and let me off.
