[Verse 1] Woke up small in the grass Now the whole yard’s a war A drop turns into a fall And the ant’s at my door Bootprints shake my shelter Grass blades scrape my face Everything got teeth now Every step is a chase [Pre-Chorus] I hear claws in the dirt I hear wings in the wind If I freeze, I’m done So I run back in [Chorus] Stay alive, stay alive In this pocket-size fight Stay alive, stay alive When the bugs hit tonight Save BURG.L, save BURG.L He’s my light in the dark Stay alive, stay alive We survive by a spark [Verse 2] Scrap the cans for metal Sap and twine in hand Pebbles turn to walls now Little fortress on the land Mite fuzz, weed stems, thistle Every run’s for a need Hammer down the danger Build what keeps us feed [Pre-Chorus] I hear claws in the dirt I hear wings in the wind If they tear one wall down I rebuild again [Chorus] Stay alive, stay alive In this pocket-size fight Stay alive, stay alive When the bugs hit tonight Save BURG.L, save BURG.L He’s my light in the dark Stay alive, stay alive We survive by a spark [Bridge] Spider on the plywood Wasps circling high I got one broken path And a reason not to die If the night comes crawling I’m not running scared I made this tiny kingdom And I’m standing there [Final Chorus] Stay alive, stay alive In this pocket-size fight Stay alive, stay alive When the bugs hit tonight Save BURG.L, save BURG.L He’s my light in the dark Stay alive, stay alive We survive by a spark
