Such a strange light
In this tiny room tonight
The world still turning
Most of it burning
I hold my breath
Then remember I’m alive

Surrounded by
All the things I’ve made
All that I have created
Leaving me oddly sedated
Will I ever impress myself?

I sense your leaving
Like a spider in my hair
A silent weaving
Barely a feeling
A gasp for air
Then I remember I’m alive

Surrounded by
All the things I have made
All that I’ve created
Leaving me oddly sedated
Will I ever impress myself?

I’ve moved a mountain
Stone by stone and tear by tear
A riot dawning
This very morning
I filled my lungs
And I know that I’m alive

Surrounded by
All the things I have made
All that I have created
Tiny seeds
Can’t say I’ve made it
But the light’s aiming for my head
