Traffic In The Sky Songtext / Lyric

There's traffic in the sky

And it doesn't seem to be getting much better

There's kids playing games on the pavement

Drawing waves on the pavement, mhm

Shadows of the planes on the pavement, mhm

It's enough to make me cry

But that don't seem like it would make it feel better

Maybe it's a dream, and if I scream

It will burst at the seams

Whole place will fall into pieces

And then they'd say



Well how could we have known

I'll tell them it's not so hard to tell, no, no, no

If you keep adding stones

Soon the water will be lost in the well, mhm






Puzzle pieces in the ground

But no one ever seems to be digging

Instead, they're looking up towards the heavens

With their eyes on the heavens, mhm

Shadows on the way to the heavens, mhm

It's enough to make me cry

But that don't seem like it would make it feel better

The answers could be found

We could learn from digging down

But no one ever seems to be digging

Instead they'll say



Well how could we have known

I'll tell them it's not so hard to tell, no, no, no

If you keep adding stones

Soon the water will be lost in the well, mhm



Words of wisdom all around

But no one ever seems to listen

They're talking about their plans on paper

Building up from the pavement, mhm

The shadows from the scrapers on the pavement, mhm

It's enough to make me sigh

But that don't seem to make it feel better

The words are all around

But the words are only sounds

And no one ever seems to listen

Instead they'll say



Well how could we have known

I'll tell them it's really not so hard to tell, no, no, no

If you keep adding stones

Soon the water will be lost in the well

Lost in the well, mhmhm
