Standing on the roof my daddy built
|
Looking at the rising of the silt
|
Everything I ever loved is underneath
|
But what the river wants, the river keeps
|
|
I used to believe in fortune
|
And that in the hands of God
|
Everybody gets no more than they deserve
|
|
But the more I see the less I understand
|
Watching as the water swallows the land
|
I'm starting to believe there was never a plan
|
That the world's gone mad
|
|
Something's out of order, out of place
|
Nothing we were taught is happening today
|
If you are the maker watching down
|
What a mess you're making on this town
|
|
I used to believe in fate
|
And the will of karma
|
I used to believe in the way the penny dropped
|
|
But the more I see the less I understand
|
Watching as the water swallows the land
|
I'm starting to believe there was never a plan
|
That the world's gone mad
|
|
I will not leave
|
I will not leave
|
No, I will not leave
|
a€?Til the water takes me
|
|
a€?Cause the more I see the less I understand
|
Watching as the water swallows my land
|
I'm starting to believe there was never a plan
|
That the world's gone mad
|
|
The more I see the less I understand
|
Watching as the water swallows the land
|
I'm starting to believe there was never a plan
|
That the world's gone mad
|
