lyrics

Everything was once a ray of sunlight
And everything was once a cloud
Energy can never be expended
And no exceptions are allowed
Everything was once a drop of water
It all was once a grain of sand
Everything contains the golden spiral
Twisted like genetic strands

Everything in life is but a fractal
Branches and fingers roots and toes
All matter is infinitely recursive
There’s no end to how deep it goes
Every molecule is always living
And all that lived is still alive
Existence is a gift that keeps on giving
No need to struggle to survive

Everything was once a ray of sunlight
And everything was once a cloud
Energy can never be expended
And no exceptions are allowed
Everything was once a drop of water
It all was once a grain of sand
Everything contains the golden spiral
Twisted like genetic strands

You were once a field of blooming daisies
And you were once a dying bird
Try to comprehend just how amazing
Try to imagine how absurd
