And Albert’s vision’s blooming uncontrolled –
All his wings are slowly sinking

Einstein’s down on the beach standing into the sand,
’cause everything he believes in is shattered

For an eggman, falling off a wall –
He’ll never be together again

She says, “It’s only in my head.”
She says, “Shh, I know it’s only in my head.”

Believe in me –
Help me believe in anything –
‘Cause I want to be someone, who believes –
Yeah

One more sun comes sliding down the sky
One more shadow leans against the wall

‘Round here,
we always stand up straight

Step out the front door like a ghost
into the fog where no one notices
the contrast of white on white

And in between the moon and you
the angels get a better view
of the crumbling difference
between wrong and right

The world begins to disappear –
The worst things come from inside here

We are digging holes to China
Then we pray to our reflections
in the water when it rises
