Would it be so hard for you
To state just for the record
That you've done your best to do nothing at all

And that you stood around
And watched from every corner
As everyone around you hit the ground

Would it tear you up inside
To take on the reflection
Of everyone around you that you know

Instead of getting by
With lying and deception
Of everyone around you letting go


All of this time
It's been benign


Only heaven knows
Only heaven shows the way

Back to everything you know and love
Only heaven knows
Only heaven shows the way

Back to everything you know and love
Everything you know and love
Everything you know and love

Back to everything you know and
All of this time
It's been benign


Would it be so hard for you
To state just for the moment

That you've done your best to do nothing at all
And that you stood around
And wallowed in your splendor

As everyone around you hit the ground

All of this time

It's been benign

Only heaven knows

Only heaven shows the way
Back to everything you know and love
Only heaven knows

Only heaven shows the way
Back to everything you know and love
Everything you know and love

Everything you know and love
Back to everything you know and
Everything you know and love

Everything you know and love
And love
And love

And love
Back to everything you know and love
And love

And love
And love
Back to everything you know and

All of this time
It's been benign
