"Building A Cathedral" lyrics

"Building A Cathedral"

One, two, three

I'm building a cathedral
And I invite you all inside
I built it for myself
But also with all mankind in mind

Constructing all of us a vessel
Upon which to sail
To go and find our golden treasure
Find each of our white whales

But I have issues, in that
In that I miss you too bad to care
Ah-ah-ah

You know I come from a country
Where the thunderclouds roll wide
Where the only hills are landfills
And the greatest sin is pride

But still I'm building a cathedral
And I invite you all inside
