lyrics

I'm a speck on some dust and it spins round a light
You are dwarfed by a sun a billion times your size
Despite impossible odds along this great decay
We're mere minutia among the grand scheme of things

How could I compare myself to a planet when the space they invade is so intangible?
I know I'm alive and that I can't understand it
We are all drawn together by an endless pull

We all came from the same place - the center of a star
But we will never return, instead we'll sink into the soil.

I read your face like a map above an open flame
What if your book carries pages in a different way?
There are billions of us - not everyone will have a tale to tell.
Some stories are too mediocre to sell

We won't ever return to the star from which I know we all originate
And the closest I'll come to that place will be the chemicals when I dissolve away.
