the chorus is from an older song I wrote
Lyrics
I was torn from an atomic storm
then I rained down unto earth
I realigned and with a cosmic sigh
I was given unto birth
When I look up, I get all shook up
thinking, "what does all this mean?"
The questions plaque you if you let them drag you
through eternity
If you feel unworthy then the stars will surely
burn you where you stand
But if you;re feeling privileged, all free and unhinged
you'll come to understand
That it doesn't matter why we've gathered
together in this place
only where we're going with our teeth all showing
with one foot always in disgrace
Now come along
leave it all behind
this is our last chance
There's no denying that the world is crying
we all share the same fate
so leave religion in the hands of dead men
open the pearly gates
They are weak but we are strong
what a way to think
nationalism is a fools vision
it's time to let it sink
