Am I In Here?
Seth Bernard Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
How dear
Still further
No matter
I can dig fear
How dear
Still further
Well, I'm in here
Depends on me
No matter
I can dig fear
How dear
Depends on me
I owe it you, all of it
All to you
I owe it to you, all of it
All to you
You owe it to us
The sun came out slowly
And a rainbow followed
And the moss was misty
And the bullfrog bellowed
Everything was fresher from the sun and the water
Everything was breathing
Am I in here
How dear
Still further
No matter
I can dig fear
How dear
Still further
Well, I'm a little creator for you
But I'm not what I could be for you
I owe it you, all of it
All to you
I owe it to you, all of it
All to you
We owe it to us
We owe it to us
Water came down
The sun came out slowly
And a rainbow followed
And the moss was misty
And the bullfrog bellowed
Everything was fresher from the sun and the water
Everything was breathing
(Everybody!)
