I decided on that evening That I was through with sitting still I stood up and started moving With a childlike fascination For those doors that don't have locks And the stairways that were blocked So I dug through the obstruction Put my fist around the railing And each step was far apart And far away from steps before it And the air was getting thinner Until I couldn't breathe at all And if I happened to look behind me There were miles and miles of stairs Enough so I couldn't see the doorway But I knew that it was there And on the last step I was dizzy Because there were stairs in all directions But I found another door And through the door there was the attic Without old clothes Without a ceiling Everything had opened wide Into the jaws of something bigger And suddenly I saw that I was Upstairs and outside and freezing on the roof Finally it had found me The answer, the feeling, and the truth: That I'm small That I'm small That I'm small I'm smaller than the smallest fireball
when I listen to this song I can feel the my vision zooming out, out of me, out of the earth, out of our solar system, out of our galaxy, and it just keeps going and going, and it never ever stops. it's like we don't even exist at all. And it doesn't make me feel insignificant, it makes me feel like... like, I'm happy that I'm so small because it means I get to experience all this beauty and all this wonder on such a large scale. I can appreciate the smallest grain of sand. And when I look up at the stars I'm overwhelmed with joy and hope.
Socratic irony - When someone pretends to be naive about a certain subject, and uses his questions about it to point out a flaw in the established belief. This is often used on the TV show South Park, where the children often ask questions about a situation until the folly in a parent's decision becomes clear.
I think that this song is about what it feels like to die happy.
we're all gonna make it.
I decided on that evening
That I was through with sitting still
I stood up and started moving
With a childlike fascination
For those doors that don't have locks
And the stairways that were blocked
So I dug through the obstruction
Put my fist around the railing
And each step was far apart
And far away from steps before it
And the air was getting thinner
Until I couldn't breathe at all
And if I happened to look behind me
There were miles and miles of stairs
Enough so I couldn't see the doorway
But I knew that it was there
And on the last step I was dizzy
Because there were stairs in all directions
But I found another door
And through the door there was the attic
Without old clothes
Without a ceiling
Everything had opened wide
Into the jaws of something bigger
And suddenly I saw that I was
Upstairs and outside and freezing on the roof
Finally it had found me
The answer, the feeling, and the truth:
That I'm small
That I'm small
That I'm small
I'm smaller than the smallest fireball

I cry with this song; when it says "Into the jaws of something bigger"... I can't avoid it, it's just beautifull.

Can't believe this song is so unpopular. It is just so gorgeous
This whole album reminds me of LittleBigPlanet immensely. It was my first video game ever and so this album makes me incredibly emotional.
Listening to this song, I feel incredibly at peace and absolutly sad at the same time
