The Tallest Man On Earth - 1904 (lyrics)

My take on the words:

Well some they say “it’s not even funny” 
And there you stand, not even trying 
They say it is in line with the ages 
Sometimes noise is just your mind

But the lesson is vague and the lightning 
Shows a deer with her mind on the moor 
And now something with the sun is just different 
Since they shook the earth in 1904

And as I lower down I hear it’s a message 
And it’s 1902 just telling people to get out 
And if there was just a way to tell them 
It’s been long, but your are right

And the singing is slow and so quiet 
Like the sound when you sweep up the floor 
And now something with the dirt is just different 
Since they shook the earth in 1904

And when the night is young with the bridges sunk (?) 
Something passing by our shore 
And the only one you can tell it to 
Well it’s the only one that’ll ever know

This is when Rob (?) was made to go through my window 
Hearing something so strange and something louder than before 
And you’re living with no light or direction 
But damn precise and now you know

When the leaving is hard but you go now 
And you feel what you drag ‘cross the floor 
Because some things with these dreams are just different 
Since they shook the earth in 1904

And when the night is young, but the bridge is sunk (?)
Something passing by our shore
And the only one you will tell it to
Well it’s the only one who’ll ever know.

And some will say it’s not even healthy
But body is young and mind is sure
That something is alright with your thinking
‘Cause they shook the earth in 1904
