lyrics

Born into faith which needs no
evidence of a deity.
Erasure of an ocean dreamed beyond,
disfigured atlas.
Prevention of an other-worldly bond.

If this is it then tell me why we live.
How can you not feel
the need to explore
what the infinite universe
has to give?

The stars, they call to me, life is not limited to this world,
we are the result of chemical inevitability.
What of intelligence, approaching the apex,
exponential acquisition of digital storage
in artificial memory?

If we went back to the big bang
and waited for the 14-billionith year,
would you still hear me?
I call out to the beginning of time,
"Can you hear me?"

Embrace light.

Born to disappear
and reappear.

Embrace light.
