lyrics

Jimmy Biggs - Denali & Diana

Too much of a good thing
Is as dangerous as never having had that thing.
You’re in a burning building
You’re the only one who’s safe, somehow
When everything’s ashes and a metal frame,
You having waivered your right to everything
Will be a plan paid off.

You’d heartily laugh
(If laughing’s allowed)
You’ll be the star and cross of the crowd

Heads aloft,
The bets paid off

I was made with tape and string,
But you were made with stronger things
I fell apart when the match was struck
The sudden death was too abrupt,
Unkind and failing to consider those
Who love enough and don’t suppose.

Everyone’s groping around in the dark,
Denali and Diana
Only I’m closing my eyes and running naked
And you’re spinning in circles
Trying to convince others
That it’s because we’ve been blinded by the sun.

If the world ends tomorrow,
Denali and Diana,
I’ve only one condition – and I’ll be
Happy either way, I promise.
That I’m either not the only person there who dies
Or that I’m not the only one who survives.
