lyrics

Hello world, what's been going on behind the face that you've been puttin on?
I was lost, I've been gone so long and I'm wondering what has changed.
Hello world, how’d ya get so big, and bright and full of all this everything
I’m amazed and I’m overwhelmed, sometimes all too much.

But in your eyes I can see a reflection of me,
I bet there's more if you’re willing to share

Hello light, you’re nearly blinding me, especially where the darkness used to be
It’s quite a shock to my circuitry, and just what I need

Cause in your eyes I can see a reflection of me,
Full of joy, wracked with pain, delightful insane
I bet there’s more that you’ve hidden everywhere

I can't count the ways that you create these
novel states, from the sublime landscapes to punk new wave
to cyberspace to celebrate this time and place Hello world...

In your eyes I can see a reflection of me,
Full of joy, wracked with pain, delightful insane
I know there’s more everywhere

Hello world, how’d ya get so big, and bright and full of all this everything
I’m amazed and I’m overwhelmed, sometimes all too much.

But in your eyes I can see a reflection of me,
Full of joy, wracked with pain, delightful insane
With your wide open arms, and your loving embrace
I know there's more that we're gonna share
Hello world
