lyrics

How did you keep your head when you found out about it?
Who did you lean on where did you turn?
How did you keep your head when you found out about it?
What did you learn?
What did you learn?

How did you keep your head when you found out about it?
Who did you speak with and where did you stand?
How did you keep your head when you found out about it?
Where will we land?
Where will we land?

Well if you stick with me I'll lead you through every season
Through all the storms and the wars and the changing of the tides
Well if you think that the wind is empty, is empty, well
You're not listening to the singing of the kite lines
Singing of the kite lines, singing of the kite lines

Sometimes I feel drunk on the tears that I’ve never cried
Though I’ve never tried very hard
Sometimes I think I know where the line is
Between the mind and the heart
Do you know what I mean?
Do you know, what I mean?


Sometimes I feel most alone, when I’m surrounded by the ones, that I love
Sometimes I feel most at home, when I’m, singing out, to a room full of strangers
Full of strangers, full of strangers, full of strangers

How did you keep your head when you found out about it?
The emperor's clothes they're layin’ on the throne
How did you keep your head when you found out about it?
You know you're not alone, not alone
