And it doesn't seem to be getting much better
There's traffic in the sky
Soon the water will be lost in the well
It's enough to make me cry
Maybe it's a dream and if I scream it will burst at the seams
Drawing waves on the pavement
It's enough to make me cry
Well how could we have known?
Whole place will fall into pieces and then they'd say
The shadows from the scrapers on the pavement
The words are all around but the words are only sounds
The shadows on the way to the Heavens
But that don't seem like it would make it feel better
If you keep adding stones
I'll tell them it's really not so hard to tell, na na na
Words of wisdom all around
Soon the water will be lost in the well, lost in the well
But that don't seem like it would make it feel better
Shadows of the planes on the pavement
But no one ever seems to listen
Instead they're looking up towards the Heavens
There's kids playing games on the pavement
It's enough to make me sigh
Puzzle pieces in the ground

No one ever seems to be digging
But that don't seem like it would make it feel better
If you keep adding stones
With their eyes on the Heavens
If you keep adding stones
The answers could be found, we could learn from digging down
And no one ever seems to listen, instead they'll say
I'll tell them it's not so hard to tell, na na na
Well how could we have known?
Songwriter: Jack Johnson
Well how could we have known?
Building up from the pavement
I'll tell them it's not so hard to tell, na na na
They're talking about the plans on the paper
But no one ever seems to be digging, instead they'll say
Soon the water will be lost in the well
