|
A crooked chimney standing in the middle of a field |
|
Once surrounded by the walls of work |
|
By laughter and by love, the sound of children playing |
|
And the sound of people saying, |
|
I love you, yeah you |
|
A crooked tree stands naked near the center of the field |
|
Barely rooted in the browns and grays of |
|
EarthThat once was green, a place long since forgotten |
|
In a world of yesterday except by me, yeah me |
|
And oh, whose plan was this anyway |
|
And I never thought he would want it to be that way |
|
It once was beautiful, right here |
|
It still is beautiful, in here |
|
You once were beautiful, |
|
I hearI hear it can be beautiful, just remember |
|
A twisted little image in your perfect little world |
|
Of the chapter where it'd all begun |
|
About a song already sung, burnt around the edges |
|
Nearly faded, nearly gone, even you, yeah you |
|
A shiny building standing in the center of today |
|
Where indifferent people go to work |
|
Go about their pay, knowing they've forgotten |
|
In a most convenient way, yesterday away |
|
And oh, whose plan was this anyway |
|
And I never thought he would want it to be that way |
|
It once was beautiful, right here |
|
It still is beautiful, in here |
|
You once were beautiful, |
|
I hearI hear it can be beautiful, just remember |
|
And oh, whose plan was this anyway |
|
And I never thought he would want it to be that way |
|
It once was beautiful, right here |
|
It still is beautiful, in here |
|
You once were beautiful, |
|
I hearI hear it can be beautiful, just remember |
|
It once was beautiful, right here |
|
It still is beautiful, in here |
|
You once were beautiful, |
|
I hearI hear it can be beautiful, just remember, oh yeah |
