there are buildings in the air
you can see them from the ground
and if you look close enough
you can see them all around
there's a sidewalk to my door
and a fence around my lawn
but it's not the land i own
it's just the land i'm on
there's a country unlike yours
so you figure that it's wrong
and you pay them a visit
with some advice to make them strong
but they try to fight you off
like you knew they would all along
'cause when you're on the land they own
you're gonna owe the land you're on
but now it's God we're fighting for
unless we blame him 'cause we can
for not loving us enough
to end what we don't understand
and then we wonder why
he doesn't answer to our groan
it's 'cause he made this land to give
and we use this land to own
there are buildings in the air
you can see them from the ground
and if you look close enough
you can see them all around
and everything that we create
won't be of value when we're gone
'cause this is not the land we own
this is just the land we're on
