Standard (EADGBE)

 Standing on the roof my daddy built

 Looking at the rising of the silt

 Everything I ever loved is underneath

 But what the river wants, the river keeps

 I used to believe in fortune

 And that in the hands of God

 Everybody gets no more than they deserve

 But the more I see the less I understand

 Watching as the water swallows the land

 I’m starting to believe there was never a plan

 That the world’s gone mad

 Something’s out of order, out of place

 Nothing we were taught is happening today

 If you are the maker watching down

 What a mess you’re making on this town

 I used to believe in fate

 And the will of karma

 I used to believe in the way the penny dropped

 But the more I see the less I understand

 Watching as the water swallows the land

 I’m starting to believe there was never a plan

 That the world’s gone mad

 I will not leave

 I will not leave

 No, I will not leave

 ‘Til the water takes me

 ‘Cause the more I see the less I understand

 Watching as the water swallows my land

 I’m starting to believe there was never a plan

 That the world’s gone mad

 The more I see the less I understand

 Watching as the water swallows the land

 I’m starting to believe there was never a plan

 That the world’s gone mad.
