God In The Numbers

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Sometimes you hold the world in your hands

Sometimes the world it baffles you with plans

Some days you drift oh so easy and free

Some nights you sleep in blissful harmony

How do we leave the wreckage of our lives?

How do you leave the past out in the night?

Don't throw away the pictures that give you a smile

Don't throw away the memories that make you cry

I saw God in the numbers

I saw God in the numbers

I saw God in the numbers

I saw God in the numbers

I know that I could learn a little harder

There's so much that I want to read and know

But maybe I'm a little lazy

Maybe I don't really want to know

I saw God in the numbers

I saw God in the numbers (I saw God in the numbers)

I saw God in the numbers

I saw God in the numbers (I saw God in the numbers)

I saw God in the numbers

I saw God in the numbers (I saw God in the numbers)

I saw God in the numbers

I saw God in the numbers (I saw God in the numbers)

The more I learn of history the more I hate it

'Cos we're repeating things we did a thousand years ago

We're building palaces of fortune in the sky

There's an underclass dying whilst we smile

I saw God in the numbers (I saw God in the numbers)

I saw God in the numbers (I saw God in the numbers)

I saw God in the numbers (I saw God in the numbers)

I saw God in the numbers (I saw God in the numbers)

I saw God in the numbers (I saw God in the numbers)

I saw God in the numbers (I saw God in the numbers)

God in the numbers (I saw God in the numbers)

I saw God in the numbers (I saw God in the numbers)

(I don't wanna

I don't wanna

I don't wanna)
