Isobel Campbell - Ant Life Lyrics

Oh you know who
And such and such
Just be yourself
Don’t ask too much
Become unnumb
Release the clutch
Let time unwind
You hear it in the way we talk
And see it in the way we walk
But please don’t ask the world to stop
Let time unwind
If I lived down a country lane
I wonder if I’d feel the same
Release the fear
Release the shame
Define what’s mine

People like ants on the highway
People like ants at the mall
People like ants marching onwards
With no time to stall

And in the blinking of an eye
We’re here and gone
But we won’t die
Refuse to lose
And choose to fly
Remember fun?
I am the gold at rainbows end
I am the moon
I am your friend
Am she who sees on dreams to tend
Remember fun?

People like ants all around us
People like ants, feeling small
People like ants marching homewards
With no time to stall
No time to stall
No time to stall
No time to stall
