Diminished

There was a shepherd lost in the many

Seeking salvation, calling the sky

His was an island flooded and drowning

Then we were sunfish schooled in the light

 

And all I am

Is a bucket in the waterfall

All I am

Is a raindrop in a bucket full

All I am

Is an atom in a molecule

An I can't be me

 

There was an angel high in the heavens

Watching the insects cover the globe

They built a ray gun, aimed at their own sun

Mother and father parted at last

 

And all I am

Is a bucket in the waterfall

All I am

Is a raindrop in a bucket full

All I am

Is an atom in a molecule

An I can't be me

 

Oh, the time is roaring

Hide me in my room

Lock me from my vices

Omnipresent doom

Now the sky is cracking

Poisoning our air

Kiss the body breathing

Kick it if you dare

Songtext: Parameter, Matthew
