Don't You Feel Small

	The flute that is absent from "The Tide Rushes In" makes its belated appearance in Graeme Edge's first fully-fleshed song, and is the song's best feature. In spite of his golden speaking voice heard in tracks like "Morning Glory" and "The Dream", Graeme must have been less assured about his singing, because he makes the odd decision to whisper the lead vocal rather than to sing "Don't You Feel Small". That pretty much killed any potential the song may have had, it just sounds too outlandish to work.	Bruce Beatlefan	November 5, 2011

Lyrics

Ask the mirror on the wall
Who's the biggest fool of all,
Bet you feel small,
It happens to us all.

See the world
Ask what's it for,
Understanding, nothing more,
Don't you feel small,
It happens to us all.

Time is now to spread your voice,
Time's to come there'll be no choice,
Why do you feel small,
It happens to us all.

Look at progress,
Then count the cost,
We'll spoil the seas
With the rivers we've lost.

See the writing on the wall,
Hear the mirror's warning call.
That's why you feel small,
It happens to us all.

Ask the mirror on the wall
Who's the biggest fool of all,
Bet you feel small,
It happens to us all.
