Temporary Ground

Lyrics

On a floating Lily Island
 Moving over slowly sideways
 Rest the temporary creatures
 Spending all of their days
 Waitin' fror the floor to
 Buckle down below their belts
 Crashing into yet another
 Drifting continental shelf
 Moving without motion
 Screaming without sound
 Across an open ocean
 Lying there on temporary ground
 Moving without motion
 Screaming without sound
 Across an open ocean
 Lying there on temporary ground
 ♪
 The old explorers had it easy
 They discovered nothing new
 But returned on home with answers
 Of sad existence clues
 All the creatures have it hard now
 Nothing but God is left to know
 And why he left us all here hanging
 With an illusion of a home
 Moving without motion
 Screaming without sound
 Across an open ocean
 Lying there on temporary ground
 Moving without motion
 Screaming without sound
 Across an open ocean
 Lying there on temporary ground
 ♪
 Moving without motion
 Screaming without sound
 Across an open ocean
 Lying there on temporary ground
