The Biggest Flower

Out on the road
The heavy-handed son
Was doing what he's told
To shine on every one
And in the darkest cloud
Started all the rain
Flooded us with water
Flooded us with pain

I never ever wanted to see it
I never ever wanted to see it
When the world was changing

Paper boats
Sailing down your street
Fresh water goldfish
Swimming at your feet
All the rain's water
And all the rain's pain
Couldn't put the sunshine
In the world again

I never ever wanted to see it
I never ever wanted to see it
When the world was changing

Our town was a lake
When it sprung the biggest flower
Stopping all the sadness
And opening the drain
I don't wish the answers
On you or your friends
They just make you wanna
Do everything again

I never ever wanted to see it
I never ever wanted to see it
I never ever wanted to see it
I never ever wanted to see it
The world is always changing
