Go ahead and close the door I stand outside in the rain A little bird just told me so It's time to start over again So I'll man up and take this boat Far away from these shores And I reach behind in enemy lines And find my terrible cure
Cause it's a cruel and beautiful world And I've got my girl And if it seems like we're falling behind We're just slipping on top from the mountains of our minds
I've buried a treasure far off near the desert I'm trying to find my way there It's been too long since I've been myself And my eyes can't see anymore But there's a song inside this heart of mine And I'd like to sing it to you Cause there's an earthquake shaking inside my country Now what am I gonna do
Cause it's a cruel and beautiful world And I've got my girl And if it seems like we're falling behind We're just slipping on top from the mountains of our minds [x2]
