lyrics

I asked a man
From where are you tuning in?
Aas the question we all had
Since we landed in her hands

A siamese cat
Greets me in the living room
No, but who let you in?
Did you come in from the rain?

In the palm of your hand,
Whole little lives, blown away
Falling like rain
Lead me away

With your face to the glass
And a blank, empty look in your eyes
You run away, to leave me behind
So I call out and run after you
but you’re already fading away

“I saw something today that changed my mind”
Even while we sleep,
“I saw something today that changed my mind”
Even while we—

And I’m hardly surprised
The trains first arrived,
When we turned our bright black porcelain eyes
To the sun, and let out a yell,
And threw a great, big, jar
From the top of the shelf

It tears me apart
Back to the start
You tore me apart
Back to the start

I saw something today that changed my mind
things will never be the same
I saw something today that changed my mind
From the roof of our childhood home
