"Every Name Is My Name" lyrics

"Every Name Is My Name"

Sometimes

I made a movie about the end of the world
It was 12 seconds long and it didn't have a plot
It just happens
And that's why it's in black and white

The characters don't talk or move around
They just stare up at the sky, frozen
And the light, the light is numb, the light is off
The light is just a thumb nail sketch of God
God

Somewhere, someone is crying
The camera sweeps over a desolate street
Holding a mother and her child
The kid is calm and she is shaking

The camera passes into the Sun
Come at last to be undone
Panicking, she tries to run
The kid is calm
The kid is calm

And then the credits roll
And every name is my name

And every name is my name
And every name is my name
And every name is my name
And every name is my name

Wake up sunshine, it's time to go
It's time to go
Wake up sunshine, it's time to go
It's time to go

Sometimes
Sometimes, the Sun
Sometimes
