lyrics

Little family in a snowglobe
Mom, dad, kids, how sweet the sound
Bound up smooth in one horizon
Keep it safe and spinning round...

In a crystal blinking minute
They could hear it in his voice
In the way he's sitting, breathing
Calling her like there's no choice

And feel the world turn inside out
Like a cyclone in a jar
Step outside and feel his thunder
See his message in the stars

There were warnings in the windows
Pass the word along the line
Keep your distance, keep your heads down
Seek storm shelter in your mind

And feel the world turn inside out...

This will be an all-night session
Time to cry and let him shout
Pull the blinds down, lock the deadbolts
Feel your heart blink in and out

And don't let anybody in if they contradict the story
Don't let anybody in if they won't play by the rules
If you let anybody in, they'll blow it up, they'll blow the roof off!
Ah...
Don't let anybody in
If you anybody in
You'd better let somebody in
You're gonna let somebody

Then the world's not inside out
Not a storm behind closed doors
Step outside, that's not his thunder
Not his message in the stars...

No the world's not inside out
One day you'll walk through these doors
Step outside, you'll steal his thunder
Can you navigate by stars?
