Brimstone fire and eyes aglow
Little big boy's making the whole world know his name
Name
Raised on pillars and shining lights,
Breathing smoke for the right to keep his place
Place
Never satisfied 'till they all see
How big this little boy can be
Well the water's rising
Tide's comin' in
Does little big boy know how to swim?
In a pond filled with fish bigger than him
Oh little big boy's gonna see how little he really is
Well he clawed up cliffs 'till he was sick
But desperation's a tricky fickle thing
It never really sits still
And all getting higher is gonna do is make you look
As small as the whole world looks to you
To you
Never satisfied 'till they all see
How big this little boy can be
Well the water's rising
Tide's comin' in
Does little big boy know how to swim?
In a pond filled with fish bigger than him
Oh little big boy's gonna see how little he really is
Well the water's lapping at your heels boy
Do you really feel like
The world's gonna end if you're not at the top
'Cause once you claim that throne
Once you call it all your own
The climb never (never)
Never (never)
Never stops (never)
Well the water's rising
Tide's comin' in (tides coming in)
Does little big boy know how to swim?
In a pond filled with fish bigger than him
Oh little big boy's gonna see how little
Oh little big boy's (he really is)
Gonna see how little he really is
