lyrics

If I spend my life composing all these words and all these notes
And if I spend my life composing all the words inside my throat
And if I spend my life composing every note born from the note that’s come before

And when in death I’m decomposing in the ground
My soul is light
And up above I hear a sound and it sounds right to me
Will I know that once so long ago
I made those notes, I sang those words
Or will I be just some part of the light

The light we all share
In our eyes
In our brains
In our smiles
And we don’t know why we share all this in common
If we have to live so separate
down here
like we aren’t all the same in what we fear
and what we know is true

When I say I love you
I love all of you

If I spend my life creating all these things out of my mind
Like little thoughts I give wings to
I can create anything
A self-fulfilling prophecy
It all comes too easily
So I choose my thoughts so carefully
so I don’t get lost

Cause if I’m a creator
And you’re a creator too
And we’re all just creating
like we always almost wanted to
And time it is moving
like liquid
like sand
And we are holding hands
with some great light
we can’t understand

And I don’t wanna go before I understand
But who am I to understand?
Who am I to understand?
