Listen

I'm tired of all the dark and dreary dreams
It's getting old
Dear God please just let me sleep
I see this story nobody wants to name
Blurry tales to keep me dazed and tame
And this grisly system's gotta come down burnin' soon
We keep on pumping up this flimsy old balloon
It never seems to get just where we want it to

Slow down
Look around
Listen to the ground she sings

And what else did we expect to get from all of this
The sidewalks melt under a tide of anxious fists
Made in bondage on my blanched and bloodless soul
It's comfy livin when you don't know what they stole

Slow down
Feel the sound
Listen to the ground she sings

There's a new wind blowing round
People making waves
And now they're shouting out that something's gotta change
Running low on time
The water's rising fast
It's time to wake up
Don't let it all slip past
