Well, it's late in the hour
And a few more grains of sand will fall
On the colorful flowers
Have grown upon the dust and moss

Now I fear the worst is near
I hold them close and count their years
Pray, a ray of light appears
To shine down on us here

Break down in the shape of things [bad word] But I'm movin' on like a soldier
And I say now when all is said and done
It's not ours to break the shape of things [bad word] 
There's a crack in the clouds
But only for a moment now
Like an eye looking out
In the blue skies finds the roads, we will go down

I wonder what they hold for us
I hold my family to my breast
I fear the worst and hope the best [bad word] to see us blessed

Break down in the shape of things [bad word] But I'm movin' on like a soldier
And I say now when all is said and done
It's not ours to break the shape of things [bad word] 
Given one more try, wonder what I'd change?
I won't deny, the thought is strange
I've done my best and I will lay no blame myself

Break down in the shape of things [bad word] But I'm movin' on like a soldier
And I say now when all is said and done
It's not ours to break the shape of things [bad word] 
The shape of things [bad word] The shape of things [bad word]
