lyrics

what if we could see how we were shrinking
how lack of thinking
is atrophy
what if half of all our pain and sickness
is self-inflicted
and gaining steam

then this isn't a thought
that you can just ignore
if we understand our place
in the black behind the stars

the world is now a fight on every corner
watching from the sides is not enough
if we don't learn to love in spite of little things
the bigger things will always call our bluff

what if we looked out into the empty
and past the brightness saw what we are
what if all you gain is all just worthless
except the value inside your heart
turn this into a game
but no one's playing anymore
we're at war everywhere we need love
there's no reason big enough for hatred
your point of reference lies above

understand how small we are
to the black behind the stars
do you
understand how small we are
to the black behind the stars

the world is now a fight on every corner
watching from the sides is not enough
if we don't learn to love in spite of little things
the bigger things will always call our bluff

understand how small you are
in the black behind the stars?
understand how small you are
in the black behind the stars

I love it. Have to agree with still bummed: this packs an emotional punch but rocks hard. I've played this whole album repeatedly over the last week which is unusual for me. Exhilarating, poignant, intelligent, melodic. Robin Ward
