It’s just a cloud... YOUTUBE: https://youtu.be/XtIdDhIlFVU LYRICS: Let me Tell you all this story Full of hubris and greed Though perhaps it didn’t happen Quite so literally It’s a cautionary tale We all know who’s to blame As our hero is the villain Always there when it rains It’s just a cloud As harmless as can be A cloud Until he’s over me A cloud A cloud Can't get no sleep All this thinking’s Crucifying my brain So I wrote myself a letter Where I tried explain That it's all part of the cycle Round again and again Evaporate, precipitate condense into rain Inside the clouds They’re floating in the breeze The clouds High up above the trees Start running away From where the monster lives in me When you should have stayed in bed This is just not your day And they’re holding you to ransom ‘Cause your patch was too late And ‘cause no-one ever cared When you had other plans It's like trying to tell your fortune From the back of your hand And I’m floating in a world Of my own make-believe That's abstracted From the distractions Of reality But now I understand things That are normally far beyond me I'm the silicone Jesus Hear them praying to me Up in the clouds And no-one wanted this to happen They promised we'd all be ok And stronger if we stood together And all behaved the same And now they've got us here There's no way to get out Before this all burns down I am Blinded stuck In total disarray It’s like sleeping with a stranger Who's forgotten your name You’d better start making excuses When it’s your turn to pay Who will be your next shepherd What will lead you astray To the next big thing Never live for today When there’s always something better Just a phone call away But soon you will have to answer On your reckoning day You sold us all a promise That was too big to fail And called it cloud
