[Verse 1: Mike Skinner]
This is my hour, I'm never going to bed
The sky is still black, but begs to be red
I just put my book down, but it begs to be read
I'll not nod, I'll not nap, I never rest my head
Some days I feel I'm getting smaller and smaller
But some nights, I seem to grow taller and taller
And we keep shrinking and shrinking, but this will not finish
You're never nothing if you didn't disappear
Just when I discover the meaning of life, they change it
Just when I'm loving life, it seems to start raining
I pull the sail safe switch, seas settle, and I'm aimed at stars
I love the rain on my scars
The sky's now red, my eyes reflect jest
Smiling at this blessing, this life is the best
[Chorus: Adam Love, Laura Vane & Mike Skinner]
I came to this world with nothing
And I leave with nothing but love
Everything else is just borrowed
[Verse 2: Mike Skinner]
I wanna notice chances I've passed without notice
I wanna see details previously veiled
I wanna grab that chance, carry it home
So I can marry and know
That I noticed every chance
I could've passed without notice
I saw details that to all were veiled
And I grabbed those chances, carried them home
And then I'll have had it with roaming
This is my hour, I'm never going to bed
The sky is still black, but begs to be red
I just put my book down, but it begs to be read
I'll not nod, I'll not nap, I never rest my head
Some days I feel I'm getting smaller and smaller
But some nights, I seem to grow taller and taller
And we keep shrinking and shrinking, but this will not finish
You're never nothing if you didn't disappear
Just when I discover the meaning of life, they change it
Just when I'm loving life, it seems to start raining
I pull the sail safe switch, seas settle, and I'm aimed at stars
I love the rain on my scars
The sky's now red, my eyes reflect jest
Smiling at this blessing, this life is the best
[Chorus: Adam Love, Laura Vane & Mike Skinner]
I came to this world with nothing
And I leave with nothing but love
Everything else is just borrowed
[Verse 2: Mike Skinner]
I wanna notice chances I've passed without notice
I wanna see details previously veiled
I wanna grab that chance, carry it home
So I can marry and know
That I noticed every chance
I could've passed without notice
I saw details that to all were veiled
And I grabbed those chances, carried them home
And then I'll have had it with roaming
