For all that you are saying
And let it take you apart to the elements of praying
There are leaves upon the skylight, trace your hand, trace your hand
For all that you are saying
'Til we are only playing to the firmament
Where's the pain, it's only rain, it's only slowing down a work day
'Til we are only playing to the firmament
And let it take you apart to the elements of praying
What's the rush, dip your brush into this twilight
For all this bad driving
You know I just can't seem to find the soul in this striving
So turn on the sky, let it hear what you're saying
In the rain, in the rain, people rush around on cold streets
And when did sex get so mean, when did crime get so clean?
On a bad day, who would you kill, take a stand, trace your hand
When did dress-up turn into fashion, throw your gown up and down
'Til we are only playing to the firmament
There's always the sky, let it hear what you're saying
For all that you are saying
'Til we are only playing to the firmament
Why not play to a dream 'cause the world is too green
'Til we are only playing to the firmament
Oh, Mr. Ed, he shot ahead, he shot ahead inside a circle
Here's a shell to hear their heartbeats very loud, very loud
Only singing 'Happy Birthday' to a crowd, very loud
And let it take you apart to the elements of praying
When did you cave into this role that you were cast in?
There's always the sky, let it hear what you're saying
