Bright Flashes Lyrics
There were bright flashes the day you were born
and your mother’s hair was brown
All of the doctors pronounced you a dead man
and they told her what to prepare for
somewhere from you at the centre of earth
the science that made you awoke
and it said oooooh
oooooh
oooooh
the gods in the sky draped in cloth made of clover
amused by the cliffs of your plight
sent down a young goddess with hair black as night
she gave you a piece of her power
and once you were young and were gasping for air
but now you are strong as a mountain
and all things considered it’s quite coincidence
I am still here and so are you
the floor of the earth may decide to upturn us
and skies might be ready to strike
and you might decide overwhelmed with surprise
that there might be something on earth worth saving
let it be me
me
me
oxygen sometimes can lead you off course
and breathing is something to die for
and all things considered it’s quite coincidence
I am still here and so are you
and your mother’s hair was brown
All of the doctors pronounced you a dead man
and they told her what to prepare for
the science that made you awoke
oooooh
oooooh
amused by the cliffs of your plight
sent down a young goddess with hair black as night
she gave you a piece of her power
but now you are strong as a mountain
I am still here and so are you
and skies might be ready to strike
and you might decide overwhelmed with surprise
that there might be something on earth worth saving
me
me
and breathing is something to die for
I am still here and so are you
