[Verse 1]
The story of my life
In a four minute slice of time
Possibly a piece of auto fiction
Coloring the story, my best addiction
Still, even as a kid
A little nomad with a strange bag of tricks
Too much self obsession and a mystical bent
Don't play well with others, hardly heaven-sent

[Pre-Chorus]
And then a sound
Sent from who knows what kind of place
But it's all around
Sending me into outer space

[Chorus]
It's good, it's good to know
That it's always ringing out
From before in the afterglow
Where I hear it singing out

[Verse 2]
Cut to present day
I'm getting pretty good at getting in my own way
Not my finest hour, I'm well and truly pissеd
Might as well add it to the evеr growing list
Of my many phases
I want to see the light through various hazes
And something pulls me back, oh, for heaven's sake
I get my act together, a total piece of cake
[Pre-Chorus]
And then the sound
Filling the room inside my heart
Where love abounds
And the villains are torn apart

[Chorus]
It's good, it's good to know
There's a fair few friends lookin' out
To say what's up, maybe just hello
And tell me whatever it's all about
It's good, it's good to know
That I still have reasons
Reasons enough, but even, even so
I am lost in this season
It's good, it's good to know
When that feeling comes through me
As I listen to the radio
It's the song that chooses me

[Outro]
It's good, it's good to know
That it's always ringing out
From before in the afterglow
Where I hear it singing out
