The light that swirls around you
6 and one 1/2 minutes ago
Was on the surface of the sun
That's about how long that it would take for me to pack my things and run

In the future
I'll have been here
that's all I know for sure
The rest of it is pretty much a blur
When the floods come to purify the sinners
I'll be gone
That much is sure

If I could be just 1/10
Of the person that you are

If you could walk around
Inside my head for just minute
You'd know how confusion really feels
I can't even tell anymore
What's a lie and what is real

So, bear the loss lightly
And try hard not to flinch
We’ll escape into the deep dark woods
Dynamite the damage
Comb through the mess
And carry what was good

If I could be just 1/10
Of the person that you are

The light that swirls around you
6 and one 1/2 minutes ago
Was on the surface of the sun
