Smaller 

 (words and music by Hazeldine, 2000) 
 From the new album "Double Back" 
Release date April 2001, Glitterhouse Records 


 We fell to earth unopened, and in falling lost our way 
 Now that I have your attention, there’s nothing to say 
From Stockholm to the border, there are sheets of driving rain 
I saw in your eyes the look of surprise as I walked away 

 If I’m getting smaller, it’s cause I’m leaving you today 
If I’m getting stronger 

There’s the busthead and a shaker, it’s the king and he stands to my pawn 
 The barroom light of a Tuesday night is blue as a tomb 
So when does your jester, pull the king from off his throne 
 I’ll cry for your death, it’s death I’ll accept, but I’ll wither and burn 

 If I’m getting smaller, it’s cause I’m leaving you today 
If I’m getting stronger, I remembered what to say 
It might be that I’m stronger 
But not today
