lyrics

I walk from the front porch, on down to the stream
Let the sun on my shoulders shake the doubt from the seams
In an age of connection, we’ve been living the dream
Like we thought it would always be

Now I sit here and ponder how the party’s gonna end
If the link to each other is gonna break or gonna bend
How the key to the future is being dropped in our hands
And it’s all up to you and me…

And these seven billion little points of light

I run with these feelings, as the current takes hold
The wind in the blue sky says I’ll never grow old
It’s amusement and wonder that charges my soul
And holds me inside the flow

Well your weather predictions say it’s more of the same
And your status quo status is the name of the game
You can hide in the shadows where you take all your blame
But you can’t shake the subtle glow…

Of these seven billion litle points of light

It’s the pressure of opportunity
Take a good long look around…

Up in the darkness, in the dancing of the stars
As you strain to consider how we made it this far
Does the truth of our smallness help you out of control
Or remind you of anything..?

If you’re over the worst part and you’re ready to fly
If you sit on this park bench and you just wanna cry
These are confusing times, friend… but it’s just you and I
Who can turn around everything…

With these seven billion little points of light
Yeah these seven billion little points of light
All these seven billion little points of light
