lyrics
Well, some will say it's not even funny,
And there you stand, not even trying
They say it is in line with the angel
Sometimes noise is just your mind.
And the lesson is vague in the lightning
Shows a deer with her mind on the moor
And now, something with the sun is just different
Since they shook the Earth in 1904
And as I lower down I hear it's a message
And it's 1902 just telling people to get out
And if there was just a way I could tell them,
It's been long but, you are right
And the singing is slow and so quiet
Like the sound when you sweep off the floor
And now, something with the dirt is just different
Since they shook the Earth in 1904
And when the night is young
But the bridge is up
Something passing by, I was sure
And the only one you can tell it to
Well, it's the only one who'll ever know
This is what robbers were made to go through my window
Hearing something so strange and louder than before
And you're living with no light, or direction
But, damn precise and now you know.
When the leaving is hard but you go now
And you feel what you drag across the floor
Because something with these trails are just different
Since they shook the Earth in 1904
And when the night is young
But the bridge is up
Something passing by, I was sure
And the only one you can tell it to
Well, it's the only one who'll ever know
And some will say it's not even healthy
But body is young and mind is sure
That something is so right with you're thinking
'Cause they shook the Earth in 1904
And there you stand, not even trying
They say it is in line with the angel
Sometimes noise is just your mind.
And the lesson is vague in the lightning
Shows a deer with her mind on the moor
And now, something with the sun is just different
Since they shook the Earth in 1904
And as I lower down I hear it's a message
And it's 1902 just telling people to get out
And if there was just a way I could tell them,
It's been long but, you are right
And the singing is slow and so quiet
Like the sound when you sweep off the floor
And now, something with the dirt is just different
Since they shook the Earth in 1904
And when the night is young
But the bridge is up
Something passing by, I was sure
And the only one you can tell it to
Well, it's the only one who'll ever know
This is what robbers were made to go through my window
Hearing something so strange and louder than before
And you're living with no light, or direction
But, damn precise and now you know.
When the leaving is hard but you go now
And you feel what you drag across the floor
Because something with these trails are just different
Since they shook the Earth in 1904
And when the night is young
But the bridge is up
Something passing by, I was sure
And the only one you can tell it to
Well, it's the only one who'll ever know
And some will say it's not even healthy
But body is young and mind is sure
That something is so right with you're thinking
'Cause they shook the Earth in 1904
