Lyrics
In my dream
You were an ant
In the palm of my hand
And in my dream
You couldn't see
That you were broken in two pieces
And I couldn't put you back together
I couldn't put you back together
Cause my big hands
Could never understand
Something small and fragile as an ant
In my dream
I set you free
In a stream of gasoline
And the pieces
They scattered out
To the north and the south
And I couldn't put you back together
I couldn't put you back together
Cause my big hands
Could never understand
Something small and fragile as an ant
So I took a match
And threw it in
And watched the trail of fire spin
And it scattered out north and south
Burning down the stream
But in my dream
Just one piece
Found a tree
And there it stayed
And had a laugh
One whole half
