about

This is for all the activists I know, the great heroes of our age. The weight of the world resting on your shoulders can feel a bit much sometimes, though. It's good to get a little perspective once in awhile.

lyrics

There are a million other suns
sprawled across this milky way
All the stars, they stumble on
farther & farther away

It’s a long long endless night
& we’ve only one short day
to make it all turn out alright
but if we don’t,
then that’s okay

We’re just an experiment
that was never meant to last
A sudden beauty
that will bloom & be gone fast
We’re all just a firework
that will burn up in the sky
of some planet
far away

***

We’re just an experiment
that was never meant to last
A violent beauty
that will bloom & be gone fast
We’re all just a firework
that will burn up in the sky
of some planet
far away
