A crooked chimney standing in the middle of a field
Once surrounded by the walls of work
By laughter and by love
The sound of children playing
And the sound of people saying
I love you--yeah you

A crooked tree stands naked near the center of the field
Barely rooted in the browns and greys
Of earth that once was green
A place long since forgotten
In a world of yesterday
Except by me--yeah me

And oh--whose plan was this anyway
And I never thought he would want it to be that way

It once was beautiful--right here
It still is beautiful--in here
You once were beautiful--i hear
I hear it can be beautiful
Just remember

A twisted little image in your perfect little world
Of the chapter where itd all begun
About a song already sung
Burnt around the edges
Nearly faded--nearly gone
Even you--yeah you

A shiny building standing in the center of today
Where indifferent people go to work
Go about their pay
Knowing theyve forgotten
In a most convenient way
Yesterday--away
(pre-chorus)
(chorus)
(pre-chorus)
(chorus-chorus)
