Lyrics
Alien Waves
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I sit here to look in the sky in the evening and stuff
When I’m, when I’m out and I realize how big it is compared to us
And we’re completely insignificant really, but I mean
That's okay, because I like it that way, or something
I don't really know how to write poetry
But on nights like these the words seem to flow straight through me
I don't think you truly understand how much this means to me
I don't really know how to write poetry
But on nights like these the words seem to come straight to me
And waves of silence and the way the trees they sway so slowly
I don't truly understand it all
I don't really know how to write poetry
But on nights like these the words seem to flow straight through me
I don't think you truly understand how much this means to me
When I’m going to sleep and you’re like whoa
What the heck am I doing here
Oh my god
I’m gonna try to get to the point up to it’s
You are a person, I’m a person, and we’re just objects that are obsolete
