lyrics

i'd been lifting movie-set weights
so i could act strong

the appeal of furnished dates
made my calendar long

spending days too afraid
to change that song

the feel of tarnished grates
beneath my feet
left the thoughts in my head
on the blink

and, how many watts in my brain?
how about my heart?
are the flames burning bright?
or, is blame burning fright?

it's all up to me
yeah, it's easy to see
got some changes to make
some electricity to awake

so, here i am
light down low, but still shining

and i'll be shifting tectonic plates
reconnect the bonds
(those faults, those breaks,
left for me to shake)

the feel of furnished fate
to the furnace it belongs
(dawns lit by eclipsed
sun-dial dialogues)

and as those days ran late,
i will run on
(my faults, heartbreaks:
my mistaken songs)

i did write, some can’t weight
so move on, ‘cause

the real love i create
within my beat
makes the reaches of my heart
reach its peak

how many watts in my brain?
how 'bout my heart?
are the flames burning bright?
oh, you know it, you know it
that's right, that's right!

and it's all up to me
yeah, it's easy to see
that i got some changes to make
some electricity to awake

so, here i am
oh, here i am
with a soul
realizing

that here i am
yeah, here i am
with a light no bounds now
and still rising
