In my body I'm a foreigner
Trying to trap wind in a box
My uncertainty is convincing me
I'm slipping on the rocks
And I get lost trying to follow
The rise and fall and swallow
Of a breath that leaves my stomach tied in knots
And still the morning light comes rushing right inside
So I'll bring down the house
Just for waking up
And if I'm going out
Will it be enough
If I seek out the sun
Will the sorrow I've spun
Stand in tall ovation
In a chemical parade
For emerging from unconsciousness
Is it so damn much to ask?
For a sense of accomplishment
And a fleeting thought to last
Unleaving
So I'll bring down the house
Just for waking up
And if I'm going out
Will it be enough
If I seek out the sun
Will the sorrow I've spun
Stand in tall ovation
In a chemical parade
So I'll bring down the house
Just for waking up
And if I'm going out
Will it be enough
If I seek out the sun
Will the sorrow I've spun
Stand in tall ovation
In a chemical parade
