A piece of sky
A chunk of earth
They lie
And lodge
In us
A piece of sky
A chunk of earth
They lie
And lodge
In us
We are star born
And we're made of dirt
Who knew the new thing
Would be hard to learn?
And all of my muscling
Is making it worse
Trying to force this
Is not gonna work
And I'm frustrated
And dislocated
With nothing to show
And I shed answers
And compost disasters
And I feel undressed
Saying "I don't know"
A piece of sky
A chunk of earth
They lie
And lodge
In us
A piece of sky
A chunk of earth
They lie
And lodge
In us
Chaos is moving
And pushing us on
Beyond the places
We've already gone
Crashed plans
And mashed plans
By the side of the road
I'm ditching agendas
To lighten the load
And certainty
And guarantees
Are fading away
And to systematic theologians
I am waving bye bye
And I feel OK
A piece of sky
A chunk of earth
They lie
And lodge
In us
A piece of sky
A chunk of earth
They lie
And lodge
In us
