Sending Out a Dove Lyrics

I heard the ocean starting to give up

We took all the fish

Replaced them with plastic

I heard the voice of God above

A promise to destroy everything on the earth in his flood

And so I'm sending out a dove

And I'm trying hard to see the rainbow

Outside my window

Right there in the street

Giving me reason to go out there

But the dove keeps coming back to me

I saw clouds

Of industrial waste

Displace all the air

With garbage and mercury

And in the heaven's seven angels of blood

And I understood the things

that I thought that had passed were to come

And so I'm sending out a dove

And I'm trying hard to see the rainbow

Outside my window

Right there in the street

Giving me reason to go out there

But the dove keeps coming back to me

I don't care about his drug years

I don't care that his mother didn't love him

I don't care that he watched his best friend die

He's still sleeping on the couch as I creep on by

And I'm trying hard to see the rainbow

Outside my window

Right there in the street

(Giving me reason)

And so I'm sending out a dove

But the dove keeps coming back

The dove keeps coming back

The dove keeps coming back to me
