COUNTING CROWS LYRICS - Insignificant

"Insignificant"



Can you see me

Up on the building

From down on the pavement

Or out in the crowd?



Can you see me

In the glare of the lamppost?

'Cause I am walking a tightrope

Into the moon



I don't want to feel so different

But I don't want to be insignificant, and I

Don't know how to see the same things different

Now



Oh can you see me?

I am one in a million

Yeah, I'm Icarus falling

Out of the sun



Could you see me fall in the light of spotlights and jackknife

Through night as black as a bedroom

And white as a lie?



I don't want to feel so different

But I don't want to be insignificant, and I

Don't know how to see the same things different

Now



Diving through the dark

While the night turns blue

Hey

Are you aware of your intentions?

Because I wear my intentions

So clear



If you see me

Wading through water

Come drown in the river

Right in front of the world

You can wash your face and hands

In the stream of my anger

It's as bright as white paper

And as dark as a girl



I don't want to feel so different

But I don't want to be insignificant, and I

Don't know how to see the same things different

Now
