The world turns
Flames on the horizon
Usher in another day
Ten billion eyes
Crack open in the new light
Rubbing all the sleep away
Some things are how it all feels like to be human
On another human day
Crowded trains
Pockets full of loose change
Blue skies, delivery
Car jams
Horns blaring, tin cans
Gods frown up above
As the children they laugh in the sun and the rain
Old ones complain as they run
Having fun for everyone
And that world keeps turning on
The old and the good die young
As a midwife cuts the chord
And two new eyes open
Welcome to humankind!
All we have
All we have is here and now
That's all that matters in the world
And all we'll ever need
We fall in love
We laugh, we cry, we die
Then these things don't matter any more
And that world keeps turning on
The old and the good die young
As a midwife cuts the chord
And two new eyes open
Welcome to humankind!
