[Verse 1]
When you may hit the ground your bones will keep on tumbling
Your pockets flipped around until you get back on your feet
And you will float across the prairie gra** at lightning speed
And you will memorize the numbers that you see
[Verse 2]
Before you hit the ground the stones will soften into leaves
The road will snap around and turn into a trampoline
Your legs will spin into a motor pushing out and in
The dirt's a diving board the earth appreciates your skin
[Chorus]
The pavement fell in love with skin
The future's bright but not for them
The soil is ripe, the air is dry
The sky is bright, the sky is bright
[Verse 3]
Your spine is bent around, your clothes are hanging in the bed
You thought to stay at home but that's not what the lizard said
You never thought you'd wake up as an airplane on the sea
The water turned to wine the whiskey turned to gasoline
[Chorus]
The pavement fell in love with skin
The future's bright but not for them
The soil is ripe, the air is dry
The sky is bright, the sky is bright
