Mm

There s lots of fish out in the pond
In the oceans and the rivers and in all the waterfalls
But if I m made for land and not the sea at all
Could I crawl and find some kind neanderthal?
What if I m from outer space
And I have fire in my bones and in my veins
I let it show
and scare my suitors far away
Leave them traumatized with visions
of its glow behind my face
They say that God makes no mistakes
But I might disagree
And I outstretch my empty hand
I watch them build society
Domesticated land
It goes according to the plan
While they re in paradise, I m exiled in the sand
If everyone has someone, then the math just isn t right
And I m the only outlier, the lonely archetype
If everything is by design, well I might disagree

You ll know something that I don t
You all learned something that I fear I ll never know
You all grew body parts
I fear I ll never know
You all know something that I don t
You all know something that I don t
You all know something that I don t

What if I m just cosmic dust?
Put me in a metal box that s bound to rust
Shoot me into space and leave me to combust
Return to earth and just dissolve into its crust
And I was born all by myself
It s not unlikely that I ll die that way as well
