about

The atoms that make me were born inside a star and journeyed through space and time to land here and now.

lyrics

I HAVE LANDED
I was born one day inside a star
I travelled high and wide, I’ve come so far
Across the ages, down through eons
I have landed here and now
I was crystal bright, forged in fire
I burst up through clouds higher and higher
I fell from nowhere, into the light
I have landed here and now
How long has this been going on, I lost track of time
Maybe it’s just a circular thing, one unbroken line

It was happenstance that led inexorably to this
So many chance events, a chain of hit and miss
Conspired to make me, to create me, I have landed here and now
Something so inconceivable, something quite sublime
Travelling across the universe, the grandest of designs

Conjured up from deep time so long ago
How it came to pass I’ll never know
But I offer my thanks into the ether to have landed here and now
To be so happy here and now, so very lucky to be here
