[Verse 1]
I stared at endless rhythm for an hour or two
Something in it spoke to me, did it speak to you?
Does it speak to you?

I came to in a city still indifferent to me
The big sky can humble, it's too high to see
It's too high to see

[Chorus]
When they cut you down to size
You were glad they left you alive
When they cut you down to size
You were glad they left you alive

[Verse 2]
I've never heard a lyric that I really liked
Every lyric I've written is a lyric I despise
Oh, I despise

[Chorus]
When they cut you down to size
You were glad they left you alive
When they cut you down to size
You were glad they left you alive
