I’m standing in the middle
The world seems so little
Compared to the space inside my mind
Every human being
Has perspective that they’re seeing
There’s nothing really that’s outside the lines
I scoured my skull
Inside out I pulled
At every single thread until I found
The answer I was searching
The reason we’re all hurting
It was a gentle, sad, mournful kind of sound

My best guess is a cloudy haze
I’m a little boy lost with heart ablaze
Somewhere far off an orchestra plays
Our song
You’re chained to the moment
Even if you have outgrown it
By the time you can own it
It’s gone

I’m wrapped up in infinity
Time got the best of me
Everything melts under the sun
Nothing can escape
You can scratch and scrape
But even God himself could not out run
The day that we know is coming
It’s bigger than you are honey
The heat death will surely set us straight
And the measure of our loss
Will be weighing all the cost
Of who you love and who you hate

Hi there! If you're new around these parts, welcome. I'm Jonathan Mann. I write a song every single day, and I've been doing that for the last 9+ years.

Through sick days, tired days, days with no inspiration, the death of my grandma, the breakup of a 5 year long relationship, the marriage to my wife and the birth of our son - I've never missed a day. This is my life's work.
