I Like Giants

When I go for a drive, I like to pull off to the side

Ahead of the road, turn out the lights, get out and look up at the sky

And I do this to remind me that I'm really, really tiny

In the grand scheme of things, and sometimes this terrifies me

It's only really scary, 'cause it makes me feel serene

In a way I never thought I'd be because I've never been

So grounded, and so humbled, and so on with everything

I am grounded, I am humbled, I am one with everything

Rock and roll is fun, but if you ever hear someone

Say you are huge, look at the moon, look at the stars, look at the sun

Look at the ocean, and the desert, and the mountains, and the sky

Say I am just a speck of dust inside a giant's eye

I am just a speck of dust inside a giant's eye

When I saw Genevieve, I really liked it when she said

What she said about the giant, and the lemmings on the cliff

She said, "I like giants

Especially girl giants

'Cause all girls feel too big sometimes

Regardless of their size"

When I go for a drive, I like to pull off to the side

Of the road and run and jump into the ocean in my clothes

I'm smaller than a poppy-seed inside a great big bowl

And the ocean is a giant that can swallow me whole

So I swim for all salvation, and I swim to save my soul

But my soul is just a whisper trapped inside a tornado

So I flip to my back, and I float and I sing

I am grounded, I am humbled, I am one with everything

I am grounded, I am humbled, I am one with everything

So I talked to Genevieve and almost cried when she said

That the giant on the cliff wished that she was dead

And the lemmings on the cliff wished that they were dead

So the giant told the lemmings why they ought to live instead

When she thought up all those reasons that they ought to live instead

Made her reconsider all the sad thoughts in her head

So thank you, Genevieve, 'cause you take what is in your head

You make things that are so beautiful and share them with your friends

We all become important when we realize our goal

Should be to figure out our role within the context of the whole

And yeah, rock and roll is fun, but if you ever hear someone

Say you are huge, look at the moon, look at the stars, look at the sun

Look at the ocean, and the desert, and the mountains, and the sky

Say I am just a speck of dust inside a giant's eye

I am just a speck of dust inside a giant's eye

I am just a speck of dust inside a giant's eye

And I don't wanna make her cry

'Cause I like giants
