lyrics

On the bright side
Wind blows again
But all I ever do is spit against him
She talks in all tongues
Well I must be deaf
Beneath the earth I only catch a trace yeah
When light crawls through the cracks
Blinded eyes just don’t mean much

Cause we saw the sun
And we heard his song
We won’t be held inside no more

But the bright lights
And the shades they cast
Are large enough to swallow up the street lamps
Breathe slow breath out fast
In clouds of dust
In hummingbirds and dragonflies she dwells now
I won’t go back below
I’ll keep on clinging on this world

Cause we saw the sun
And we heard his song
We won’t be held inside no more
I’m more than a grain beneath the earth
More than a hindrance to myself
And I’ll be damned
If I don’t turn around the spell we’re under

She doesn’t know she
She doesn’t know she does
She doesn’t know she makes the trees shake when she walks

Cause we saw the sun
And we heard his song
We won’t be held inside no more
I’m more than a grain beneath the earth
Μore than a hindrance to myself
And time will tell
If I can stay around or crawl down under
