Intro
Verse
There's traffic in the sky
And it doesn't seem to be getting much better
There's kids playing games on the pavement
Drawing waves on the pavement mm-hm
Shadows of the planes on the pavement mm-hm
Pre-Chorus
It's enough to make me cry
But that don't seem like it would make it feel better
Maybe it's a dream and if I scream
It will burst at the seams
This whole place will fall into pieces
And then they'd say
Chorus
Well how could we have known
I'll tell them it's not so hard to tell
Nah nah nah
You keep adding stones
Soon the water will
Be lost in the well
Mmmm mmmm
Verse
Puzzle pieces in the ground
But no one ever seems to be digging
Instead they're looking up towards the heavens with their eyes on the heavens
Shadows on the way to the heavens
Pre-Chorus
It's enough to make me cry
But that don't seem like it would make it feel better
The answers could be found we could learn from digging down
But no one ever seems to be digging
Instead they'll say
Chorus
Well how could we have known
I'll tell them it's not so hard to tell
Nah nah nah
You keep adding stones
Soon the water will
Be lost in the well
Mmmm mmmm
Verse
Words of wisdom all around
But no one ever seems to listen
They're talking about their plans on the paper
Building up from the pavement
Shadows from the scrapers on the pavement
Pre-Chorus
Its enough to make me sigh
But that don't seem like it would make it feel better
The words are all around but the words are only sounds
And no one ever seems to listen
Instead they'll say
Chorus
Well how could we have known
I'll tell them it's really not so hard to tell
Nah nah nah
You keep adding stones
Soon the water will
Be lost in the well
