[Verse 1]
Look at the sky, and wonder why it s so blue up there
And wonder why you re so blue down here,
And why everything s plastic and try
To count up the ways that you can believe in a God who
Doesn t seem to believe much in you
Who s living but already died
[Pre-Chorus]
Fill up your veins on fluids
With your so-called friend group
And stagger around til your blood s blue
And pickles all of your insides
[Chorus]
You know we re heaven-bound
But we re all stuck on the ground
Everyone s seen that phase
They re just trying to live it down
All in the same sad ways,
With slightly different sounds
We re going to the same place
We re just stuck on the ground, now
(x2)
[Verse 2]
This was a year chock-full of seasons and weekends
Got two friends to whom you re not speaking
And a girl whose veneers are her pride
Wake up in the tent with someone standing on your chest
Your brother calls, asks if your depressed
But it s more like you re just switching sides
[Pre-chorus]
Blame it on mom and on dad,
They re the easiest targets
And try like hell just to forget
You ever had healthy insides
[Chorus]
You know we re heaven-bound
But we re all stuck on the ground
Everyone s seen that phase
They re just trying to live it down
All in the same sad ways,
With slightly different sounds
We re going to the same place
We re just stuck on the ground, now
(x2)
[Verse 3]
Oh, well, I miss all those days when we d sail the seas
Just him, and her, and you, and me
We lived like a clan, we fought just like kids
We took no stock in pie charts, or bar graphs, or grids
And in those last few days, we came to some conclusions
That safety and comfort are only illusions
And a saint can be made out of any old man
All it takes is a brush, and some paint, and a plan
And this globe is only one giant beehive
And not one of us will get off of it alive
Well, I miss those days when we d sail the seas
I miss those days, they set me free
