Mama I’m reborn
Mama with my own eyes
The sky and everything beneath’s untorn
Mama my legs are light

No distance from the start
I set sail and I arrived
I was looking out the window
And fell straight out of the night

These sun caught flecks riding on a ripple’s crest
And they call for the gods to watch on
But they’ve seen it all before and when the curtain falls
They’ll pick up their bags and move on

I had a dream
And 28 long years I slept
Built a cage and I called it mine
Wrapped it round my head

But when the bars did break
I fell out like a circus act
Danced down by the railroad tracks
I fell back into their laps

Sun caught flecks riding on a ripple’s crest
And they call for the gods to watch on
But they’ve seen it all before and when the curtain falls
They’ll pick up their bags and move on

These walls they go up by my hands
Brick by brick I got the days to feed
I’m gonna march across this land
I’ll walk my way back down the line
I might’ve slipped but a moment back
I caught a moondrop in my eye

But mama my lips are sealed
I’d tell oh but it’s bound to rust
Crumble off at a common touch
Mama it’s a falling leaf

I’ll trace it on your nose
Break it so it grows a wing
Sing it down and through your toes
Mama it’s a pretty thing

I’m a sun caught fleck riding on a ripple’s crest
And I’m calling the gods to watch on
But they’ve seen it all before and when the curtain falls
They’ll pick up their bags and move on

These walls they go up by my hands
Brick by brick I got the days to feed
I’m gonna march across this land
Then I’ll walk my way back down the line
I might’ve slipped but a moment back
I caught a moondrop in my eye

I might’ve slipped but a moment back
I caught a moondrop in my eye
