I Like Giants

Album: Kimya Dawson Durasi: 2:39
[00:00.52]When I go for a drive I like to pull off to the side
[00:02.33]Of the road, turn out the lights, get out and look up at the sky
[00:05.44]And I do this to remind me that I'm really, really tiny
[00:08.63]In the grand scheme of things and sometimes this terrifies me
[00:11.89]But it's only really scary 'cause it makes me feel serene
[00:15.49]In a way I never thought I'd be because I've never been
[00:18.20]So grounded, and so humbled, and so one with everything
[00:21.76]I am grounded, I am humbled, I am one with everything
[00:25.36]Rock and roll is fun but if you ever hear someone
[00:28.03]Say you are huge, look at the moon, look at the stars, look at the sun
[00:31.24]Look at the ocean, and the desert, and the mountains, and the sky
[00:34.44]Say I am just a speck of dust inside a giant's eye
[00:38.02]I am just a speck of dust inside a giant's eye
[00:41.67]When I saw Genevieve I really liked it when she said
[00:44.38]What she said about the giant and the lemmings on the cliff
[00:47.50]She said 'I like giants
[00:51.14]Especially girl giants
[00:54.30]'Cause all girls feel too big sometimes
[00:57.47]Regardless of their size'
[01:00.66]When I go for a drive I like to pull off to the side
[01:03.37]Of the road and run and jump into the ocean in my clothes
[01:06.97]And I'm smaller than a poppyseed inside a great big bowl
[01:09.63]And the ocean is a giant that can swallow me whole
[01:13.20]So I swim for all salvation and I swim to save my soul
[01:16.43]But my soul is just a whisper trapped inside a tornado
[01:19.50]So I flip to my back and I float and I sing
[01:23.12]I am grounded, I am humbled, I am one with everything
[01:26.23]I am grounded, I am humbled, I am one with everything
[01:29.44]So I talked to Genevieve and almost cried when she said
[01:33.04]That the giant on the cliff wished that she was dead
[01:35.71]And the lemmings on the cliff wished that they were dead
[01:39.36]So the giant told the lemmings why they ought to live instead
[01:42.18]When she thought up all those reasons that they ought to live instead
[01:45.76]It made her reconsider all the sad thoughts in her head
[01:49.39]So thank you Genevieve, cause you take what is in your head
[01:52.97]And you make things that are so beautiful and share them with your friends
[01:55.65]We all become important when we realize our goal
[01:58.88]Should be to figure out our role within the context of the whole
[02:01.94]And yeah, rock and roll is fun, but if you ever hear someone
[02:04.62]Say you are huge, look at the moon, look at the stars, look at the sun
[02:08.22]Look at the ocean, and the desert, and the mountains, and the sky
[02:11.98]Say I am just a speck of dust inside a giant's eye
[02:14.67]I am just a speck of dust inside a giant's eye
[02:18.24]I am just a speck of dust inside a giant's eye
[02:21.46]And I don't wanna make her cry
[02:24.55]'Cause I like giants
[02:29.54]🎵
