we're building towers straight up to heaver
and burning bridges ahead
hour after hour, until eleven
can't spare a moment for the dead

(chorus:)
won't you buy me a beautiful day?
won't you buy me a soft summer rain?
won't you buy me the things you took away?
won't you buy me release from this pain?

we're out dancing at our own funerals
we're all dying anyway
there no ransom, we can't bribe nature
there's no price that we could pay

(chorus)

lett's hope there's nothing to reincarnation
lying in these beds that we have made
let's hope there's someone in this great nation
forgiving all the debts we never paid

(chorus)
