Six Seconds Old

Verse: C F Am G
Chorus: F G F G F Am F G F G F Am G F

This is the song you first sang
When you were six seconds old
When you were wet and
It was cold and
You were screaming

These are desires first expressed
As an eaglet in the nest
With its neck stretching, stressed
Extending upward

These are the eyes that you blinked
When you caught a glimpse of light
Oh it gave you quite a fright
To have such vision

Out from that night
But it was brilliant

Outside the womb
Life is so cold
you grow sickly and old
But that's from living
And when it's gone away
You'll be happy you didn't stay
Inside that
Inside that
Inside that cave

These are the voices you first heard
Sounding so fully absurd
To be unmuffled, every word
Could now have meaning

This is precaution that you took
Swapping a king out for a rook
For your defenses, oh they shook
To their foundations

These are the thinkings that you thought
And the reapings that you wrought
As you drew your tight lips taught
And just held true

To what you knew
And it was brilliant

Outside the womb
Life is so cold
you grow sickly and old
But that's from living
And when it's gone away
You'll be happy you didn't stay
Inside that
Inside that
Inside that cave

This is the verse that catches tight
In your tiny throat every night
As you sing out for some light
In all this darkness

This is the song that you wrote
Bayonet cold at your throat
Soldiers clutching at your coat
As their empire fell

Out from that night
Came this sweet brilliance

Outside the womb
Life is so cold
you grow sickly and old
But that's from living
And when it's gone away
You'll be happy you didn't stay
Inside that
Inside that
Inside that cave

This is the song you first sang
When you were six seconds old
When you were wet and
It was cold and
You were screaming
