Lyrics
In the spirit of David and the cracks in the walls and the schemes that we're all running,
We’re exposed to the rain coming down from the clouds and the fire that falls from heaven,
But our tragedy binds what our ignorance hides, we all wind up here together,
Yeah our bodies are tired and our souls they are blind, bones broken by the weather
Got a lotta bad days still comin’ our way, but a sweet ever after
Wind and waves breaking over our walls, but the ship, it don’t shatter
The real life lesson bout a life well lived, is you lose what don’t matter
But the sun’s coming up on the stairway to heaven,
In the sweet ever after, in the sweet ever after
Woke up terrified in the middle of the night , to a storm, our whole house was shaking
Didn’t know where to hide, the winds howling outside, sounded like everything was breaking
Well the tears fell like rain, when the morning light came , in the wake of that disaster
Brick and stone in the streets, shattered glass in our feet, homes splintered by the weather
Got a lotta bad days still comin’ our way, but a sweet ever after
Wind and waves breaking over our walls, but the ship, it don’t shatter
the real life lesson bout a life well lived, is you lose what don’t matter
But the sun’s coming up on the stairway to heaven,
in the sweet ever after, in the sweet ever after
If we listen, there's a sound beneath the footprints in all our towns,
We’re connected, like waves of grain,
when we break wide open, we’re all the same
when we break open , we’re all the same
Got a lotta bad days still comin’ our way, but a sweet ever after
Wind and waves breaking over our walls, but the ship, it don’t shatter
well the real life lesson bout a life well lived, is you lose what don’t matter
but the sun’s coming up on the stairway to heaven,
in the sweet ever after, in the sweet ever after
in the sweet ever after, in the sweet ever after
