Theres traffic in the sky

And it doesn't seem to be getting much better

Theres kids playing games on the pavement

Drawing waves on the pavement mm-hm

Shadows of the planes on the pavement mm-hm

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

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

Bm

Be lost in the well

Mmmm mmmm

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

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 theyll say

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

Bm

Be lost in the well

Mmmm mmmm

Words of wisdom all around

But no one ever seems to listen

Theyre talking about their plans on the paper

Building up from the pavement

Shadows from the scrapers on the pavement

Its enough to make me sigh

But that dont 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 theyll say

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

Bm

Be lost in the well
