just was out late walking around tonight, and like a lot of people i sometimes sing to myself when no one is around. so just kinda made this up and want to make it into a song. figured i would post it here to get the lyrics down before recording it once. included info about the title, i think that's pretty cool. just musings, whatever

and if you see the lightning through the light pollution
shining blue, dust, and mustard, mixed with blood

flash all around me,
flash all inside me,

well then you'd see the same thing through a tree from the ground
as lookin down into your torso

only smaller
give 'em water

they're just smaller
filled with water

our world is so,
our world is so,

In neurophysiology, the action potential is a self-regenerating wave of electrochemical activity that allows nerve cells to carry a signal over a distance. It is the primary electrical signal generated by nerve cells, and arises from changes in the permeability of the nerve cell's axonal membranes to specific ions. Action potentials (also known as nerve impulses or spikes) are pulse-like waves of voltage that travel along several types of cell membranes.[1] The best-understood example of an action potential is that which is generated on the membrane of the axon of a neuron, but also appears in other types of excitable cells, such as cardiac muscle cells, and even plant cells.
