lyrics
you were only measuring your life
to take a measure of a thing
you have to stop and let it sing
don’t mind me - I’m just moving here
don’t find me - I’m just cowering
did you pour a little water in the sea
did you name your sons and daughters after me
do you dream about the pictures in your head
did you find yourself a sinner in the thread
to take a measure of a thing
you have to stop and let it sing
don’t mind me
look down from above
I’m just moving here
like a martyr
on all fours
bathed in blood
don’t find me
look up from below
I’m just cowering
like an angel
hell I’m on top
in the snow
you tell me your name
I only hear
these syllables
we think it’s a game
they live in fear
we’re unreliable
to take a measure of a thing
you have to stop and let it sing
don’t mind me - I’m just moving here
don’t find me - I’m just cowering
did you pour a little water in the sea
did you name your sons and daughters after me
do you dream about the pictures in your head
did you find yourself a sinner in the thread
to take a measure of a thing
you have to stop and let it sing
don’t mind me
look down from above
I’m just moving here
like a martyr
on all fours
bathed in blood
don’t find me
look up from below
I’m just cowering
like an angel
hell I’m on top
in the snow
you tell me your name
I only hear
these syllables
we think it’s a game
they live in fear
we’re unreliable
