The TV static did antennae tuning in
And its the news again
Just send the pizzas here
a case of ice cold beer
And only two of us to share
With my eyes on the glass
A strange escape I see
never reaching me
Yesterday has been and gone,
today it won't be long
Let's forget about the past
If it's easier
you may close your eyes
and look away
So you can face another day
With my eyes on the glass
A strange escape I see
never reaching me
chorus: All the pictures of the fall
All the writing on the wall
A crowd is marching
in the street
So many have nothing to eat
And death is waiting for disaster
Relief may slowly make it through
A world sits watching how you do
But no one does a thing about it
With my eyes on the glass
A strange escape I see
never reaching me
chorus: All the pictures of the fall
All the writing on the wall
All the sinners and the saints
All the wasting and mistakes
Maybe another day
will see a better world
Maybe the answer wouldn't mend
Now for our faithless world
it's far too close
To the end
chorus
