lyrics

I spend my days making things more beautiful
More appealing and more consumable
And that bleeds into my life
How can I not think it's my value
How can I not think it's how I'm useful

I know we live in a simulation
When I keep seeing the same numbers again
And every day feels the same on end
Again and again
Again and again

I've become an expert when I begin
Let it hit me and get back up again
But I lose either way I cut it
I wish I could say that I'm above it
I'm above it

My work is to expose
To uncover and to deeply know
I keep touching stoves and my hand catches fire
Learning that it's valuable, tending to things kindly
Learning what is valuable, how I've been surviving

I only feel small
Because I made myself shrink
Loss, it makes me human
Makes me feel like I can live

I only feel small
Because I made myself shrink
Loss, it makes me human
Makes me feel like I can live

I only feel small
Because I made myself shrink
Loss, it makes me human
Makes me feel like I can live

I only feel small
Because I made myself shrink
Loss, it makes me human
Makes me feel like I can live
