lyrics

Sometimes I think good feelings never last
and the ones that hurt us most are here to stay
Sometimes I think we're here just for laughs
...or maybe I just want it that way

We're just the building blocks of something bigger
We're just the elements of God
We're just the building blocks of something better
We're just the elements of God

I see things clearly from the inside
Just a smaller part of a bigger piece that I'm not programmed to understand

And the beauty of it all is how ugly it seems from our perspective

The reflection in the stream you were't supposed to see
It leads to Mother Nature wondering how she came to be
The relection in the water you weren't supposed to use
It leads to Mother Nature noticing her abuse

We're just the building blocks of something bigger
We're just the elements of God
We're just the building blocks of something better
We're just the elements of God

I see things clearly from the inside
But still dream of being out of the box shaping you into what I see fits best
You can be my building block
Just let me do the rest
