Well it's the blind leading the blind in the world now
Aching for the light, we need it somehow
We were meant to bring together but we scatter
Mumbling lines and killing time but does it matter?
I've been every side
I've been every side of this
I've been every side of this breakdown
I was running from snakes in golden feathers
Wounded by friends who skip rough weather
Gave up on love from spineless people
Yet I clung to a broken steeple
Well it's a cold confusing song to sing it alone
Marquees on green lawns are calling you home
And we're picture perfect on the outside
But we're drowning
God forbid we have a conversation frowning
I've been every side
I've been every side of this
I've been every side of this breakdown, yeah
I was running from snakes in golden feathers
Wounded by friends who skip rough weather
Gave up on love from spineless people
Yet I clung to a broken steeple
I found a stained glass generation
Grieving the sins of their lost nation
Just when I'd lost my faith in people
It was under a broken steeple
I've been every side
I've been every side of this
I've been every side of this breakdown, yeah
Sing the hymns in someone's basement
Like you mean it
Hold some space then fight for change
And be the healing
I'm getting so damn tired of this breakdown
I was running from snakes in golden feathers
Wounded by friends who skip rough weather
I put a canvas on my easel and I painted a broken steeple
We are a stained glass generation
Poets, prophets, misfits and outcasts
But when the world needs selfless people
It can run to a broken steeple
We were meant to bring together but we scatter
