lyrics

I'll never know who i am, but neither will you.
Not through religion or politics or extended drug use.
Cuz that's a question just too big to ask
like why are we here and how does it end?

We're all governed by a script I never understood
by a screenwriter who left the set and went to Hollywood
but he doesn't have the answers.
Fame garners followers and followers garner power.

I like looking at the dead things in the sky at night.
I'll waltz and tango in their many dancing lights.
They let me see what I want too
and for a moment, I can believe that I know what I should do.

Out of all the things that don't exist, you are standing here
with your friends and enemies and loved ones you hold so dear.
Marvel at how lucky you are because you are stardust that somehow
became self-aware.

I want the answer to the question of what questions I should ask.
I want to know the lives of everyone I pass.
I want to scream at the stars, and the Moon, and the Sun
and tell them I love them cuz they gave birth to everyone.
