Sending Out a Dove

I heard the ocean starting to give up
We took all the fish
Replaced them with plastic
I heard the voice of God above
A promise to destroy everything on the earth in his flood
And so I'm sending out a dove

And I'm trying hard to see the rainbow
Outside my window
Right there in the street
Giving me reason to go out there
But the dove keeps coming back to me

I saw clouds
Of industrial waste
Displace all the air
With garbage and mercury
And in the heaven's seven angels of blood
And I understood the things
that I thought that had passed were to come

And so I'm sending out a dove
And I'm trying hard to see the rainbow
Outside my window
Right there in the street
Giving me reason to go out there
But the dove keeps coming back to me

I don't care about his drug years
I don't care that his mother didn't love him
I don't care that he watched his best friend die
He's still sleeping on the couch as I creep on by

And I'm trying hard to see the rainbow
Outside my window
Right there in the street
(Giving me reason)
And so I'm sending out a dove
But the dove keeps coming back
The dove keeps coming back
The dove keeps coming back to me
