The Rural Alberta Advantage
10ft Tall
[Verse 1]
Had a dream you were 10ft tall
Locked inside your beautiful skull
Hanging on through the rise and the fall
I went looking around but
Never could ever recall
What scares you in the life
Well I'd vanquish it right in the fog
[Verse 2]
Hazy love and the weight of time ain’t bad after all
I'll be round for the first final call
Biding my time just waitin' around while I’m small
All through the night building on a body of songs
[Chorus]
But I was there tucked in your head
Tallying the days singing songs you forget
When you're finally awake and I'm not tall
[Verse 3]
Often in the night I try to pass you advice
Over slow moving chords
Somehow if you never wake up again
I won't stay quiet
But the songs still cut through the void
[Chorus]
But I was there tucked in your head
Tallying the days singing songs you forget
When you're finally awake and I'm not tall
[Verse 4]
A thousand times I forgot the lines
So I sketched this, on the back of your eyes
All along I know it's a lot to absorb
Please don't stop me if I’ve told you this all before
