It's such a big world
Sometimes I feel small
Like I'm in a castle
Lost in the halls
It's like an ocean
Inside these walls
Maybe it's not a bad thing
After all
It's such a big world
Sometimes I feel small
Like I'm a child
And everyone's tall
The people are walking
I'm learning to crawl
What if it's not a bad thing
After all?
Maybe some things are not meant to change
This life makes less sense as I age
The best pieces of me, they remain
Just a little bit strange
After all
After all
It's not my home
After all
After all
It's not my home
Sometimes I feel small
Like I'm in a castle
Lost in the halls
It's like an ocean
Inside these walls
Maybe it's not a bad thing
After all
It's such a big world
Sometimes I feel small
Like I'm a child
And everyone's tall
The people are walking
I'm learning to crawl
What if it's not a bad thing
After all?
Maybe some things are not meant to change
This life makes less sense as I age
The best pieces of me, they remain
Just a little bit strange
After all
After all
It's not my home
After all
After all
It's not my home

2nd time hearing this... I've fallen down the rabbit-hole that this song whisks me into from the start... I think of Caroline Rose's surreal "The Doldrums," with strong hints of Hania Rani and Patrick Watson thrown in, and then I catch myself thinking, (as others have also mentioned), Oh, that's so Agnes Obel, and then, I wonder, How is this not Alison Sudol in her early A Fine Frenzy phase? Truly, I behold in this an auspicious burgeoning of talent -- a "Paracosm" indeed, Captain!

Wow, I had no idea these three women were related. What talent in those genes! Thanks for the link to that lovely performance. I adore the playfulness and joy they seem to have with each other, particularly that cute moment at 2:20 when two of them mess up and giggle about it. I can imagine that, growing up, they did a lot of three-part harmonies like this simply for the love of it: in the car to school, on road trips, around a bonfire, waiting for food at a restaurant, etc.
What a family !

Congrats to the parents.

I've really fallen in love with this song - it's just beautiful.
Love it from the first note. What a lovely clear voice! And a rare 3/4 rhythm.
Solid 8.

Thought this was Agnes Obel at first. Nice melody and chords. Unexpected direction. Unique.

Super interesting song . . . cinematic.

First time hearing this, and I'm finding it excellent!
I can identify with the feelings in this song. The older I get the more lost I often feel :(
Well, this is a bit good. Immediate 8. Thanks for the new music William (again)
