Why - Animal Flag

When your parents met, it was a lonely night

They figured yeah, who cares?

People get married all the time

Then they made you up, and they brought you home

And they laid you down and said «God, what have we done?

What have we done?»

Now you’re a speck of dust on a floating rock

You’re the fastest hand on the smallest clock

You’re a vapor bird in a body cage

And when you break out, it’ll leave everyone in pain

Oh, in pain

No God above, there’s evil all around

I think it’s safe to say that I know that now

But sometimes I laugh, and sometimes I cry

And lately I’ve been feeling like I’ll never know why
