Lyrics

The giants marched
One long parade
That swept through the town
We with our mouths agape
From the ruin that was left
We were never the same
We stand in their wake
As it starts to rain

The radio plays in the night
While we’re lying in bed
Gives voice to unrest
In our little nest
“Can’t help what I want”
The words that I’d said
The words take flight in the moonlight
Like moths in the moonlight

Because I want to be big
The king of my sandbox
Casting my shadows
Over the castles
I can’t (afford to) ignore the call
When destiny knocks
The words pour out in the moonlight
Daring (those in) the shadows of moonlight

When they came at the break
Of dawn and the lies of the night
Impossibly large, impossibly strong
Droning the song
That spoke of them and their right
To take their place in the daylight
To show us our place in the daylight

The giants marched
One long parade
That swept through the town
We with our mouths agape
From the ruin that was left
We were never the same
We stand in their wake
As it starts to rain
