Someone Has a Plan by Ethan Toga Lyrics
[Chorus]
When I was a kid
I spoke to the wind
I recognized my lies and sold my thoughts
But what if my face
When turned to the stars
Was only ever searching for a god? (Amen)
[Verse 1]
We been at this for lifetimes like Atlas
Since lifelines were gathered and sight lines were scattered
Since killing a mammoth was a quick breakfast sandwich
And your siblings might vanish if the dog got too famished
But even then we would question intent
Lay awake and invent all thе proper events
A mystеrious solution to the voice in our heads
It's a curious pollution of the choices ahead
When we mar the surface of the marble with our cursive
Engrave the letters of our beauty laden curses
Raze the temples of the wild to build our churches
Raise the tempo of the tide to fill some purses
[Chorus]
When I was a kid
I spoke to the wind
I recognized my lies and sold my thoughts
But what if my face
When turned to the stars
Was only ever searching for a god? (Amen)
I can't see the need
To rule from our knees
You compromise your ties to hold a hand
But maybe it's worth it when you're alone
At least you know that someone has a plan (Amen)
[Verse 2]
But it'd be hard to keep faith
With a god of any kind when I'm psalming my face
At the state of the environment, my vanishing retirement
I'm gettin real tired of this devious maze
It's a white picket fence and a promise for change
It's a silent contribution to the previous ways
It's a violent revolution for the previous days
It's a favor distribution based on how much you pay
It's that fruit of the devil, Persephone's plight
It's that sound of the kettle, keep stokin' the fire
'Cause it's easy to settle 'stead of makin it right
That's the quiet disrespect, playin' ship in the night
[Chorus]
I can't see the need
To rule from our knees
You compromise your ties to hold a hand (Amen)
But maybe it's worth it when you're alone
At least you know that someone has a plan (Amen)
But maybe it's worth it when you're alone
At least you know that someone has a plan (Amen)
When I was a kid
I spoke to the wind
I recognized my lies and sold my thoughts
But what if my face
When turned to the stars
Was only ever searching for a god? (Amen)
