Connectivity

everybody, i have to say
is waving their arms 
like birds of prey
everybody, or so it seems
is made up of 
all our dreams
all our dreams

this one points out
to a brother
that one points
to another
this one, it is said
is the one who discovered
all our dreams
all our dreams

come and reach me out
check the weather out
don't it make you want
to shout and jump about?
there beneath your skin
arteries and veins begin
just like the trees
always reaching 
bones are branches, too
in your blood
flows the river jordan

everybody wants their say
it's in their dna
this one points
with a crooked finger
will you be a witness
will you stand at trial?

everything they say is relative
everything will be explained
this one's close to you
this one's far away
this one's your brother
this one's your...
this one's your sister
this one's your...

everybody, i have to say
is waving their arms 
like birds of prey
everybody, or so it seems
is made up of 
all our dreams
all our dreams

come and reach me out
check the weather out
don't it make you want
to shout and jump about?
there beneath your skin
arteries and veins begin
just like the trees
always reaching 
bones are branches, too
in your blood
flows the river jordan
