OK Cathedral

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Tell everyone Tell everyone you'd like to tell That I'm not gonna make it here Waiting and waiting for God To carry me to shore No, I'm not gonna take it here And I said to my mother "Gonna change you, gonna save you" But I'll be here anyway [Chorus] Everyone knows it's just like that The government knows it's just like that The writing is written on your back I'll take an island in your eyes Watch the sun get high and pretend until it's all gone I don't ever wanna go This cathedral is my home [Verse 2] Wake up inside Wake up inside what you don't know 'Cause we're not gonna make it here For years, we've been acting so cold Useless chat and ice No, we're not gonna take it here And I said to my mother "Gonna change you, gonna save you" But I'll be here [Chorus] Everyone knows it's just like that The government knows it's just like that The writing is written on our back I'll take an island in your eyes Watch the sun get high and pretend until it's all gone I don't ever wanna go This cathedral is my home This cathedral is my home
