All For Nothing
We been around for what seems like a million years
And look at how far we have not come
We love to tell ourselves
We are the smartest creatures of them all
But the facts are we are oh so dumb
Can you hear Him, God is laughing
The world spins round and round and round
And we heed the call of an ancient sound
All for nothing, all for nothing
We build our cities from the sand to the sky
We live out our lives and then we die
All for nothing, all for nothing
We make our plans and we are think we are in control
But they slip away every one
We work our jobs
And we buy ourselves a house in the 'burbs
We think we live the dream but there are none
Can you hear Him, God is weeping
We think we're at our peak
We look at how high we can reach
But like Sisyphus we go a-tumbling down
We go to church and we pray for our souls to be saved
The water's rising and we're scared we'll drown
Can you see Him, God is sleeping
And look at how far we have not come
We love to tell ourselves
We are the smartest creatures of them all
But the facts are we are oh so dumb
Can you hear Him, God is laughing
The world spins round and round and round
And we heed the call of an ancient sound
All for nothing, all for nothing
We build our cities from the sand to the sky
We live out our lives and then we die
All for nothing, all for nothing
We make our plans and we are think we are in control
But they slip away every one
We work our jobs
And we buy ourselves a house in the 'burbs
We think we live the dream but there are none
Can you hear Him, God is weeping
We think we're at our peak
We look at how high we can reach
But like Sisyphus we go a-tumbling down
We go to church and we pray for our souls to be saved
The water's rising and we're scared we'll drown
Can you see Him, God is sleeping
