Cell Song

we've got minds behind our eyes
looking out at ourselves
things that grow
out of the ground
must one need
believe in me
each little cog
sticks to the next
how can it be that they're alive
this clever twist
this pyramid scheme
has got you in a double bind
out of nothing making something like a cell
making patterns like the galaxy of cells
this interaction the consequences gone
i'm glad you made it
got to make some kind of soul
we have a contract, yeah we have each other's backs
we made a promise but one day we'll fall apart
until the world gets tired of looking at itself
we have a place
a fighting chance
while the chemicals keep up their dance
while the roots are digging deep
trying to suck the whole place dry
out of nothing making something like a cell
making patterns like a galaxy of cells
this interaction the consequences gone
i'm glad you made it
got to make some kind of soul
we have a contract, yeah we have each other's backs
we made a promise but one day we'll fall apart
we have a contract, yeah we have each other's backs
we made a promise but one day we'll fall apart
we have a contract, yeah we have each other's backs
we made a promise but one day we'll fall apart
we have a contract, yeah we have each other's backs
we made a promise but one day we'll fall apart
