The Grand Design lyrics You can say the grass is green from the falling of the rain You can say we live a lie 'cause there's nothing left to gain And to live is just a game of waitin' Everything is gonna change But your mind is jaded, your thoughts have been persuaded and not created You wanna know, so I'm tellin' you why: Shining like a star down from heaven, chances are for the taking If you took the time, you'd know it's all in the making Shining like a star down from heaven, glory's all that we needed and it's so divine (so divine) the grand design (grand design) There is more to what you see than you wanna comprehend There is less of what you need and the circle never ends And it's all a part of bein' a dreamer, but the dream is not pretend And your mind is jaded, (jaded) your thoughts have been persuaded and not created (created) You wanna know, so I'm tellin' you why: Shining like a star down from heaven, chances are for the taking If you took the time, you'd know it's all in the making Shining like a star down from heaven, glory's all that we needed and it's so divine (so divine) the grand design (grand design) The theory disputed, the meaning diluted, the weight on your shoulders, no worries, it's not over Shining like a star down from heaven, chances are for the taking If you took the time, you'd know you're not gonna make it, yeah Shining like a star down from heaven, glory's all that we needed and it's so divine (so divine) the grand design (grand design)
