The whole damn thing came crashing down
the whole damn thing came crashing down
the whole damn thing came crashing

I had a dream that I was a monument
50 stories tall and made of white cement
now baby baby baby will you touch my side
take a picture of us side by side
or am I something that you see once and you forget?

crashing down crashing down

I had a dream that I was a black box of string
tied up inside on the outside square and clean
now baby baby baby will you open me
this one ends so obviously
i'm just another box in your shopping spree

Was I, just a landmark in your mind?
a name and face for a place and a time.

the whole damn thing...

In New York they are building this monument
they're going to pave it over and they'll tell you not to forget
but if we do not put down our guns we're going to kill everyone
we will block out the moon just to spite the sun.

and I'm, just a landmark in your mind.
a name and a face for these very strange times.

some dreams you never can forget
some dreams you never can forget
some dreams in your mind are etched.

but I can see those, I can see those I can see those I can see those 
Monuments...
