You built another tower in the sky
It's built so tall it sways
You don't know why
You fill it with your people and their things
But it can never seem to get you high

You dig another hole into the ground
Bury yourself as you burrow down
People patter on the streets above
But nothing ever seems to turn your frown

But you'd break it all to pieces for love
And nobody would believe what you've done

You're filling all your forms every day
‘Cos everything it lands some other way
And everybody's trying to get some
You don't know where to look or where to run

But you'd break it all to pieces for fun
And nobody would believe what you've done

You're drifting like a boat now through the sands
Semi-circles forming up above
Your peace and goodwill carried by a dove
But no one's ever seen where it lands

And you're breaking now that push has come to shove
‘Cos all of it has never been enough
So you're breaking it to pieces for love
Nobody can believe what you've done
