Little dot

Lyric: Shoulder to shoulder on the morning train A sea of coats and faces in the rain They take up space, they breathe so loud They cast a shadow, they draw a crowd I tuck my elbows in, I hold my breath I’m dodging giants, scared to death That if I speak, the wind will blow me away Just a paper ghost in the middle of the day Everybody’s got a mountain to climb A heavy footprint, a blazing timeline I’m looking up from the valley floor What am I even here for? I’m just a little dot inside the world A speck of dust caught up in the swirl A single pixel on a massive screen Right in the middle, but totally unseen They’re moving like planets, pulling the tide And I’m just a satellite along for the ride A drop in the ocean, a grain in the sand A tiny little dot in the palm of a giant’s hand I watch the girl with the megaphone voice The man in the suit who is everyone’s choice They color outside of the lines that they drew Painting the sky in a confident blue I try to scream, but it comes out a hum I’m tapping a rhythm on a miniature drum If I disappeared into the gray Would the picture change anyway? Everybody’s got a fire to feed A desperate hunger, an endless need I’m just a spark floating up in the dark Trying to find a place to land and leave a mark I’m just a little dot inside the world A speck of dust caught up in the swirl A single pixel on a massive screen Right in the middle, but totally unseen They’re moving like planets, pulling the tide And I’m just a satellite along for the ride A drop in the ocean, a grain in the sand A tiny little dot in the palm of a giant’s hand But if you zoom in Past the cities, past the noise A dot isn’t just a speck A dot is a singularity It’s the center of gravity And I’m pulling you in I’m the brightest little dot inside the world The eye of the storm caught up in the swirl The master pixel burning up the screen The heaviest anchor that you’ve ever seen Let them be planets, let them be wide I’m the gravity pulling the tide A spark in the ocean, a pearl in the sand A tiny little dot taking over the giant’s hand A tiny little dot Right where I belong I may not be the loudest But I hold the whole damn song
