Lyrics
Your voice let me know
Your voice signaled the beginning
That it was time to start that thing
Initiating a certain action or project
Changing the world
Attempting to change the world
Bit by bit, inch by inch
Gradually and steadily
When we were still forming
In the early stages of development
That thing that you and only you could do
Unique abilities possessed only by you
That thing that no one else had
A special quality that no one else possesses
Oh what power commanding everyone
Exercising significant influence over others
We had everyone's attention
Having the attention of everyone
We had everyone
-Attention
Emphasizing the idea of attention
We had everyone's attention
Continued emphasis on having everyone's attention
The message is changing
The message is evolving or transforming
Because of who's paying
Influenced by those who are financially contributing
Whose pain?
Questioning whose suffering is acknowledged
You let them run away like a train on fire
Allowing problems to escalate uncontrollably
Barreling towards us all barreling
Approaching rapidly, unstoppable
Barreling toward everyone barreling
Approaching rapidly towards everyone
Yeah yeah yeah, you too
Including yourself in the impending challenges
Barreling towards us all
Approaching rapidly towards everyone
Some people just get lucky
Some individuals experience good fortune
Some people have it all
Some individuals possess everything
What about the ones who have nothing
Raising awareness about those who lack everything
Whose pain is getting all the attention
Whose suffering is receiving attention
Give my pain your undivided attention
Asking for undivided attention to one's pain
Everything and everyone wants your attention
Highlighting the widespread desire for attention
How many more tomorrows will we awake to?
Questioning the number of future opportunities
You think there's time to course correct
Doubting the possibility of corrective actions
Right the ship, sail toward
Navigating towards a positive direction
So much going on all the time then more and more
Describing the overwhelming nature of events
Toward castles in the air, we sail toward
Sailing towards ambitious and impractical goals
This castle is in the air
Highlighting the unrealistic nature of a goal
Looking the other way toward not caring
Choosing to ignore or be indifferent
Just castles in the air
Pursuing unrealistic dreams
Uh, ah, oh-oh
Expressing emotions with vocalizations
Uh, ah, oh-oh
Repetition of vocalizations
Uh, ah, oh-oh
