lyrics

MATTER
Think of us as single small atoms
Attracted and repulsed bits: electrons
And protons
So how come all these things just
Don't fall apart?
Somehow we manage to remain whole
Whole…

How did these atoms
Come from so far?
Each was made in very different stars
Then this crushing gravity starts
To fuse us and

Chorus:
I can’t believe what I’m seeing
This can’t be right
I was a fool
Time after time
Why would you give me
Chance after chance
It doesn’t make sense
And I let my hurt self
Fall down your odds
Here’s my New Tomorrow
Cleansing my sorrow
Things fall into place

I'm no longer just star fuel
I transcended hydrogen
Helium, lithium, nitrogen…
An organic polycule

An elemental hard-on
We form life as we gather
Far more than just some hadrons
I'm Father
I'm Mother

Once highly energized photons
Massless, went ever-further
God's touch, enter Higgs Boson
I'm matter
I matter

"E is equal to M by C squared"
"E is equal to M by C squared"

Hard to believe I deserve this life
Is it all just chemistry? 'Cause…

I can’t believe what I’m seeing
This can’t be right
I was a fool
Time after time
Why would you give me
Chance after chance
It doesn’t make sense
And I let my hurt self
Fall down your odds
Here’s my New Tomorrow
Cleansing my sorrow
Things fall into place

Oh… As I’m becoming matter
Unscattered and whole
Nucleosynthesis

We fuse to become Some One
I’m No One no more
My New Tomorrow’s here
