As I came in here to greet the night
you stood there and you shook my ground
And even your shade did shine
All the small things, I see them now

subtle science it was
subtle science it was

oh and at the end I find you, 
you’re the light and the tunnel is closing soon
if only I could lure your eyes
if only I could cast back your shine

you see me now, in the nick of time
the crowd moves and chaos fills the night

subtle science it was
subtle science it was

And everything is upside down, 
I see the world different now
You found me all lost in your light
I try to walk but my feet hang from the ground

subtle science it was
subtle science it was

As I came in here to greet the night
you stood there and you shook my ground
All the small things, I see them now.
oh how you take and give it back again

And how you shine and echo at night
and how you always leave something behind
everything means nothing
and something small can mean it all

subtle science it was
subtle science it was
