lyrics

Snow falls gently outside the gates at the garden of eden
Where anyone who's left spends their days lined against her walls, to feel the radiating warmth from within

One by one, we walk back to our apartments routinely
Where the rent is way too high, but we'll be the first in line when those gates open up to let us in


But if you're wasting away
Waiting for your lucky day
Put this place behind you
In the time that you have
You'd better build what you can
Forge a way ahead; do it now


Roadways crumble under a midnight sky at the edge of the city
Where a still-wet message, scrawled
In pink fluorescent spraypaint
Beckons threateningly, "turn back now"


That reproach is a sign
That your instinct is right
Keep on driving onward
Don't get off of the road
'Til you find a place you can grow
Cultivate your world and let the sun shine down

You'd better build what you can
Better build what you can

Don't sell yourself short
Being helpless and bored
Live a little, start right now


Amber sunbeams warm our souls in the garden of eden
Where the greenest pastures glisten
With the sweat from our brow
As we breathe in deeply, close our eyes, and rest
