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 grays of 
EarthThat 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 hearI hear it can be beautiful, just remember
A twisted little image in your perfect little world
Of the chapter where it'd 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 they've forgotten
In a most convenient way, yesterday away
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 hearI hear it can be beautiful, just remember
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 hearI hear it can be beautiful, just remember
It once was beautiful, right here
It still is beautiful, in here
You once were beautiful, 
I hearI hear it can be beautiful, just remember, oh yeah
