My Own Little World Lyrics - Story Of Your Life - Matthew West

In my own little world 

It hardly ever rains 

Never gone hungry 

Always safe 

I got some money in my pocket 

Shoes on my feet 

In my own little world 

Population me 

I try to stay away awake 

'Til the Sunday morning church 

I throw a twenty in the plate 

But I never give 'til it hurts 

And I turn off the news 

When I don't like what I see 

Yeah it's easy to do when it's 

Population me 

What if there's a bigger picture 

What if I'm missing out 

What if there's a greater purpose 

I could be living right now 

Outside my own little world 

Stopped at a red light 

Looked out my window 

I saw a cardboard sign 

Said 'Help this homeless widow' 

Just above the sign 

Was the face of a human 

I thought to myself 

God, what have I been doing 

So I rolled down the window 

And I looked her in the eye 

Oh how many times 

Have I just passed her by 

I gave her some money 

Then I drove on through 

In my own little world there's 

Population two 

What if there's a bigger picture 

What if I'm missing out 

What if there's a greater purpose 

I could be living right now 

Outside my own little world 

Oh, my own little world 

I'm going to break my heart 

For what breaks Yours 

Give me open hands 

And open doors 

Put Your light in my eyes 

And let me see 

That my own little world 

Is not about me 

What if there's a bigger picture 

What if I'm missing out 

What if there's a greater purpose 

That I could be living right now 

I don't wanna miss what matters 

I wanna be reaching out 

Show me the greater purpose 

So I can start living right now 

Outside my own little world 

My own little world
