Elijah weeps to the pavement

Hands outstretched and worn

Everyday is getting harder

But what does it matter

She says my love

Oh could you help me

But it resolves to nothing



Her words cry out

Like a flock of black birds

she says could you spare....

But he doesn't bother



Fallen once

Now falling faster

We'll dissolve to laughter

'Cause we're all here

But hardly notice

We're not getting better



I wake up early

Grab my things and I'm out the door

Everyday I'm working harder

To keep up the payments

And the rise and the fall

Up above the carpet clouds

Perspective changes

'Cause we're wrestling over tiny matters



The majesty

Of all we forget

I'm stuck on a jet plane

And I remember



Fallen once

Now falling faster

We'll dissolve to laughter

'Cause we're all here

But hardly notice

We're not getting better

The sky is screaming

We've taken over

So self-important and overdone

some believe

That we're all angels

But we don't remember
