God Laughs Lyrics

When you come from a solid foundation
it freaks you out when the ground starts shaking
And everything around you is breaking

Mom was going crazy together to keep it
Dad's two lives, he was keeping it a secret
When we found out we couldn't believe it

We're all walking on quicksand, yeah
When we're busy making our plans, God laughs
Yes he does
We're all walking on quicksand
When we think that we understand, God laughs

I've been a sound board, trying to be neutral
Born in the middle, it's hard to be useful
It's been hell, if I had to be truthful
When people grow apart and people can change
But it leaves a lot of mess that someone's gotta clean up
It happened here to the family I love

We're all walking on quicksand, yeah
When we're busy making our plans, God laughs
Yes he does
We're all walking on quicksand
When we think that we understand, God laughs

And we're so stupid if we think that we control
All the dark matter in the center of this black hole
It's gonna pull us under if we don't let go

We're all walking on quicksand, yeah
(Everybody's walking on)
When we're busy making our plans, God laughs
(He does, he does, he does)
We're all walking on quicksand
When we think that we understand, God laughs

"When you come from a SOUTHERN NATION it freaks you out when the ground starts shaking And everything around you is breaking"

"I've been a sound board, trying to be a new tune Born in the middle, it's hard to be useful It's been hell, if I had to be truthful When people grow apart, people can change, but It leaves a lot of mess that someone's gotta clean up It happened here to the family I love".

No, I'm pretty sure it's "solid foundation"... The "new tune" part might be true, I'll replace it in the lyrics if I can confirm it

these are the lyrics from the booklet... I have corrected "when people grow apart AND people can change" based on this, but everything else seems to be correct

A song about how God laughs when we try to plan our lives or understand the mysteries of this earth. It's also about Delta's parents breaking up and how that felt for her.

this song is about her parents divorce and its saying that anything can happen at anytime and we dont have control over it. but i think the lyrics are quite obviouswhen you read them..
