about

Original song written for ARC 9 PIES, a multimedia animated film I made in collaboration with Kent Ortiz & Nathan Royall. Watch it here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZ-a1BLfG6M

lyrics

By the time it’s night
I’ve forgotten how to breathe in sunlight
Flashes in my eyes
Replace what used to be the stars in the sky

I know where I’m going
I’ve been here a thousand times
On a thousand nights

Maybe I’ve lost my wonder
But how could I deny
Something on which I can rely

It’s all so strange and yet the same
It’s all so strange and yet the same

Nothing’s wrong or right
We’re all just terrified we’re wasting our time
Never could decide
If it came down to it would I fight or fly

I know where I’m going
I’ve been here a thousand times
On a thousand nights

Maybe I’ve lost my wonder
But how could I deny
Something on which I can rely

It’s all so strange and yet the same
It’s all so strange and yet the same
