All There Is

This song goes out To all the hopeless sinners With grave allegiances So meaningless and vain The walking wounded In a pageant of contenders Who balance on a rail of pain For just a pail of rain And everything is barely mist Blood relations and bricks My expression, my confession (oh-oh, oh-oh) Add it up, extract a lesson (oh-oh, oh-oh) More than this, once again Like a bullet, as a friend Tell me, can that be all there is? In my rectory of doubt I kneel to pray like one devout As time the great, gray dreamless sleep Of a useless modern God Erodes away each storied day As wretched Adams with hell to pay Contend upon a rail of pain For just a little rain And everything is dearly missed Blood relations and bricks My expression, my confession (oh-oh, oh-oh) Add it up, extract a lesson (oh-oh, oh-oh) More than this, once again Like a bullet, as a friend Tell me, can that be all there is? There's an endless disposition And it doesn't mean a goddamn thing There's space for a paper airplane race in the eye of a hurricane And if pigs could fly then surely so could I But this pedestrian knows better than to even try And my divinity is caught between the colors of a butterfly And everything is dearly missed Blood relations and bricks My expression, my confession (oh-oh, oh-oh) Add it up, extract a lesson (oh-oh, oh-oh) More than this, once again Like a bullet, as a friend Tell me, can that be all there is? All there is
