lyrics

LYRICS:
I'll tell you a story
Boy meets girl
Both prototyped in a star
A billion years ago

Collections of atoms
You can touch and see
Electrons and protons and neutrons
Just like you and me

Time goes by
The girl departs
Leaves to return to the stars
Right back to the start

Abandon your body
And your cells decay
I like to imagine
What they will become some day

Why would this happen?
Searching for reason in futility
Not ashes to ashes, but atoms to atoms
What would you think if you were me

Well everybody makes mistakes
And this is not a love song
Death is not the end
Your stories they will go on

Within our memories
A chance to live again
We are your legacy
Death is not the end

Everything will happen
Just as it always would have
The gears of fate are turning
There's no way you can change that

Love is just a label
A title for a concept
Created by our culture
And present since it's onset

And everybody makes mistakes
No this is not a love song
Death is not the end
Your stories they will go on

Within our memories
Is where you'll live again
That is your legacy
Death is not the end

Everybody hurts the same
It's coded in our structure
Societies of cells
In self-repeating clusters

And the universe will hold it's breath
In sweet anticipation
Because we are all the same
I see no separation

Everybody makes mistakes
And this is not a love song
Death is not the end
Your particles will go on

Don't strive to be remembered
As one drop in the ocean
You are the universe
In ecstatic motion

Everybody makes mistakes
Everybody makes mistakes
Everybody makes mistakes
Everybody makes mistakes
