Soma Holiday Lyrics

when i was a boy i used to ask the sky for things
i lay in bed reciting lines to the ceiling
i made requests as though the clouds were somehow listening
i read a book because somebody said it'd save me
now i'm old and i believe only the things i see
the awful news and whatever is on the t.v.
the sad truth that the world is descending
if miracles exist then god is holding out on me
there is nothing waiting
there is nothing waiting
there is nothing waiting
there is nothing waiting behind the clouds
just a man pulling strings
we live in a sad world,
i'm not a sad man
i'm thankful for the ones i love
my family and friends.
