Everybody knows someone important,
Has an angel on which to rely
There is something
Everybody
But me understands
And I won't understand before I die

Some people build a cathedral
It takes more than one lifetime to complete
When they're gone, their children carry on
The fruits of their labors go unseen

Everybody has someone to talk to
Has someone who knows what it means
Oh there is something everybody but me understands
It makes me jealous and faithless and mean

Oh there is something everybody but me understands
And I don't even know what I've seen
