Elijah weeps to the pavement
|
Hands outstretched and worn
|
Everyday is getting harder
|
But what does it matter
|
She says my love
|
Oh could you help me
|
But it resolves to nothing
|
|
Her words cry out
|
Like a flock of black birds
|
she says could you spare....
|
But he doesn't bother
|
|
Fallen once
|
Now falling faster
|
We'll dissolve to laughter
|
'Cause we're all here
|
But hardly notice
|
We're not getting better
|
|
I wake up early
|
Grab my things and I'm out the door
|
Everyday I'm working harder
|
To keep up the payments
|
And the rise and the fall
|
Up above the carpet clouds
|
Perspective changes
|
'Cause we're wrestling over tiny matters
|
|
The majesty
|
Of all we forget
|
I'm stuck on a jet plane
|
And I remember
|
|
Fallen once
|
Now falling faster
|
We'll dissolve to laughter
|
'Cause we're all here
|
But hardly notice
|
We're not getting better
|
The sky is screaming
|
We've taken over
|
So self-important and overdone
|
some believe
|
That we're all angels
|
But we don't remember
|
