lyrics

I may not have noticed this phenomenon before
that all that glitters is most certainly made of gold
and if you were to break up everything into sand
the pieces you're left with would still be just like them

all that makes you shine
all that makes you shine
I put in my pocket
I put it in mine
all that makes you light
all that makes you light
I kept in a suitcase
to save darker times

flowers are perfect and no one would contest
even when bitten by insects we still attribute them the best
snowflakes are endless but no one has ever checked
when they fall on your eyelashes I've the same type of sureity

CH1
all that makes you whole
all that makes you sing
I stored up together
to make patchwork type things
all that makes you speak
all that makes you smile
I put in my jacket
so it would be mine

you can put stickers on stuff that's too boring
and you can even paint it if painting is your thing
sew on your clothes a picture that you like
and rip off all the buttons if they're not what you like

all that makes you keep
all that makes you hoard
keep safe within distance
so you can gather more
all that makes you speak
all that makes you smile
I put in my jacket
so it would be mine
