And Fmake it all come Ctrue
While Fothers go on Cdreaming
Of thDmings they'll never Gdo

He Ctold his tale of Ghow he'd failed
The Flessons he'd been Ctaught
But he Foffered no exCcuses
And he Dmleft me with this Gthought
CHORUS:
We're all just FseedsG  
In god's ChandsF  C

Of things they'll never do

We're all just seeds
