Lyrics.....
Explode the sun till its raining fire
And open the rooftops and put on your shoes
Cos I wasnt dreaming, was just aiming higher
With thousands of people all aiming there too

So open your ears to the sound of the music
Abandon suspicion and come out to play
Cos when our tomorrows bring their fruition
A straw house thats locked up, will still blow away

And explode the sun till its raining fire
And open the rooftops and put on your shoes
Cos I wasnt dreaming, I was just aiming higher
With thousands of people all aiming there too
With thousands of people all aiming there too, too, too

Cos Hatred is one way of making things happen
But a victory in anger is not worth the taste
So dont tax the sunshine, or profit from murder
Whats lost while your stealing, cannot be replaced

And everyones is a hypocrite, but some of us know it
So learn from those instincts and instigate change
Cos billions of people are praying for better
So crush up those demons and start acting strange

And explode the sun till its raining fire
And Open the rooftops and put on your shoes
Cos I wasnt dreaming I was just aiming higher
With millions of people all aiming there too
With millions of people all aiming there too, too, too

So hold on to love but dont waste your passion
Theres plenty to fear, but non worth the cost
Give out to the world, and it might refund you
Cos when it comes crashing youll be the one lost

And Explode the sun till its raining fire
And open the rooftops and put on your shoes
Cos I wasnt dreaming I was just aiming higher
With billions of people all aiming there too
With billions of people all aiming there too, too, too

mr pilgrim , your fantastic drumming for mr weller, but as a singer and songwriter ive got to say this is one of the best songs ive heard in a long fucking time, the lyrics are mind blowing, as a song writer myself , i can only dream of writing a song half as good as this.. hope you read this
