lyrics

there's nothing more clear than what you know when the end is near
and bent out of shape, maybe unrecognizable if you made a mistake
but a mistake by you could tear the world in two
if you were never one of the wise

and you heard what they said about the sun in the sky
and you heard what they said about the sun of god
and you heard what they said about all of us
but you can find it in you to turn it all around
you can find it in you to lose yourself

i just want you to know what's coming your way
if you can't find someone to save the day
'cause there's not strength in you to tear the world in two
i have known it all this time

and you heard what they said about the sun in the sky
and you heard what they said about the sun of god
and you heard what they said about all of us
but you can find it in you to turn it all around
you can find it in you to lose yourself

there's not strength in you to tear the world in two
i have known it all this time
it's too delicate to tear the world in two
i known it all this time

sun, approach
if you don't know, well, how can you make it better?
ground below
you should know we're better off together
oh, say it ain't so
but everyone knows, i've been this way forever
but a mistake by you, leaving me, just in time

and you heard what they said about the sun in the sky
and you heard what they said about the sun of god
and you heard what they said about all of us
but you can find it in you to turn it all around
you can find it in you to lose yourself

bent out of shape,
maybe unrecognizable if you made a mistake
