Dan Bull - So Close to Home lyrics

Well, since I woke up
Things have become a little different
Look close up feel so blooming insignificant
I never really sat
And took a minute just to think
How miniscule I feel
Amid this funny world I'm stuck within
I'm merely miniature diminutive
And Lilliputian no idea or hint or clue
What's written for me in my future
Look what I've been reduced to
Still unsure if I would stop it
Even if I choose to
I've got used to being microscopic
Whether right or not
It might be what I'm choosing to do
Nature may be brutal, true
But, it's beautiful too
It's up to you to decide
Just what you do with your lifе
Might not be human in size
But, you are human insidе
You view the dandelions hanging high
Blanketed in languid light
No language can quite describe
Such an astounding sight
At every size imaginable
You're still bound to find
Countless grand designs of magnitude
Right down from ground to sky
In a space so great we're So Close To Home
But we may as well be in
Another galaxy we're so alone
But from tiny acorns, you can grow an oak
And if we don't go big then we won't go home
We're So Close To Home
But we may as well be in
Another galaxy we're so alone
But from tiny acorns, you can grow an oak
And if we don't go big then we won't go home

No entomologist has known
Intimate knowledge like this
I've been to forests
That could fit entirely into your fist
Spent time with tiny tiny communities
That are far more organized
Cohesive and complete than human beings
Beneath your boots unseen
Groups are busy doing things
Teeming teams of teeny troops
You'd really refuse to believe
Moving through the leaves
Subtle slow under your nose
The wonderful hustle and bustle
Rustling the undergrowth
To find it feels like
Shovel uncovered sunken bone
Or realizing we're no more than grubs
To hungry crows water is short
There surely won't be sudden abundant flows
Only dew drops in thunderous blows
That come to flood your comfort zone
You've never understood
Or known of real hunger
'Til you discover a mushroom and chew it
Not sure if it'll kill you
Once you've consumed all of your food
What do you think you're going to do?
Nature may be beautiful, true
But, it's brutal too in a space so great
We're So Close To Home
But we may as well be in
Another galaxy we're so alone
But from tiny acorns, you can grow an oak
And if we don't go big then we won't go home
We're So Close To Home
But we may as well be in
Another galaxy we're so alone
But from tiny acorns, you can grow an oak
And if we don't go big then we won't go home

Plump dew drops cling from the tall grass
Might as well be tree drops seems so vast
Sun breathes through the leaves
Inks shadows in the dust
That'll swell and bring the dusk in
Shelter is a must because traveling is tough
With the moon as your guide dappled, ashen
I'll entrust it to you to decide
Whether you run and hide
Or fight through the night
Might not be human in size
But, you're human inside
Summer's holding on tight
Surely won't last long
When it's coming like pride
It'll forecast fall
It's just more tall grass
It'll all past sure
But'll be back and reborn i mean that
A new dawn in a space so great
We're So Close To Home
But we may as well be in
Another galaxy we're so alone
But from tiny acorns, you can grow an oak
And if we don't go big then we won't go home
We're So Close To Home
But we may as well be in
Another galaxy we're so alone
But from tiny acorns, you can grow an oak
And if we don't go big then we won't go home
