Couldn't keep the walls From caving in ♪ Looked beyond the loss And I saw no end ♪ Didn't mean to be a disappointment ♪ My friend I told you years ago I'm not heaven sent Not heaven sent This is what happens when You tell your truth to the river
And it keeps on flowing by ♪ You plant your flag on the summit
Just to turn around to find ♪ It goes higher than the sky ♪ It goes higher than your minds eye ♪ This is what happens when You raise your voice to the storm cloud And the lightning strikes your boat ♪ And you know there's no hope for the willfulness ♪ That kept your ignorance afloat I'm sorry if you hate me now ♪ Or if you pity my lot ♪ But I'll keep on singing Like it's the only thing I've got ♪ Like it's the only thing I've got
