lyrics

i sang a song
the thunder sang along
it bellowed louder than i could
when i opened my mouth
so i screamed loud
but still my voice was drowned
i saw futility in fighting
the cavernous sound

maybe that's a lesson
that i am not the thunder
and i'm not the ground

i exist between these things
i am not the rain that falls and floods my home
but here i float
growing gills i hope
i just want to change the thing i am
i want to be alone

i want to be something
that can love and have a meaning

something more than just a living
between the ground and rain
a feeling exploding out inside a chest
greater than life, acquiesced
i wanna scream so loud!

so i sang a song!
the thunder sang along!
so i raised up my battered lungs
til my voice blew out!
but the noise went on!
and in it thunder drowned-
i became familiar with a thing i always felt
