Before the earth was round There was no end to things No one tried to measure what they knew
Everything was war And everyone knew love And every contradiction was true The sun worked twice as hard And the moon was twice as far And the sky was still honestly blue The sky was still honestly blue
But when the time came Everything spiraled in And everyone forgot what they knew
And war became a job And love became a mystery And heart and head were rent into two Fear and doubt began And God threw up his hands And the sky didn't know what to do The sky didn't know what to do The sky didn't know what to do
