Ever been dazzled by someone much more amazing that you? Happens to me all the time.

lyrics

It’s hard to see how blind I’ve been
If i could score it up to ten
I get around and trust the sound I make to me
I’m an expert at my own mythology
But it’s a rare day when the gale rages
All that floats by are my novel pages
(No flood ever washed anybody clean)

And then I see you
And then I see you
And what is what is what?
When you can’t believe your eyes?

Some days (become your watershed)
A revolution (in the head)
All that you get (is my amity)
And it becomes (a calamity)
it’s never quite enough
or everything it seems to be
when everything I know
is everything I’ve known

So i don’t seem so remarkable
I’ve emptied out my arsenal
A gale that’s spun my house around
And mixed together sight and sound
Mixed it around and around and around

And then I see you
And then I see you

What was so rare’s now commonplace
Add scars and seams at a rabbit’s pace
What’s down is up, too much, enough!
And what is what is what?
When you can’t believe your eyes?
