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
