I pledge allegiance to the fags, the immigrants, the drunks, The disenfranchised punks, hidden by rags And there's no such thing as god, for if there was, He'd be lost in obscurity where he belongs We are children of space and crustaceans All our extremities licked by flames of the sun Raised underwater by ice-dwelling mammals Schooled in a network of nerves, untied and undone We emerge unscathed, never looking back to wonder how Betrothed, betrayed, never having figured out You're so much more than the sum of the family you're from And the circumstances which you grew up around And if there really is a truth, then you'll never get your head around it My father crawled on the floor of the ocean The son of shit-tons of atoms swirling around My mother slept in the wake of a comet Catching on fire and slamming into the ground Someday when we've all evolved back to nothing We'll spend our whole life exploding under the stars With even less of a real understanding That this incredible journey was actually ours Aus Songtexte Mania
