Verse 1:
Looking up at midnight skies
Counting stars like fireflies
Billions of worlds I'll never see
But they're calling out to me
Planets spinning in the dark
Each one leaves a question mark
Are we alone in this design?
Or just one thread in cosmic twine?
Chorus:
We are stardust, we are light
Born from explosions in the night
Every atom in our bones
Came from stars that called space home
We are stardust, spinning free
In this endless mystery
What we are and what we'll be
Written in infinity
Verse 2:
Galileo raised his lens
Showed us worlds without an end
Now we send our ships to Mars
Chasing dreams among the stars
But the more we think we know
The more the questions seem to grow
Black holes swallowing the light
Time and space bent out of sight
Chorus:
We are stardust, we are light
Born from explosions in the night
Every atom in our bones
Came from stars that called space home
We are stardust, spinning free
In this endless mystery
What we are and what we'll be
Written in infinity
Bridge:
Thirteen billion years ago
The universe began to grow
From a single point of fire
Building all that we desire
Supernovas blazed and died
Scattered gold throughout the sky
And from that ancient stellar dust
Came the world we know and trust
Verse 3:
So when I feel lost and small
In this world that seems to fall
I remember where I'm from
Every heartbeat is the sum
Of a thousand dying suns
Of the cosmic race we run
I'm connected to it all
From the great down to the small
Final Chorus:
We are stardust, we are light
Born from explosions in the night
Every atom in our bones
Came from stars that called space home
We are stardust, spinning free
Children of astronomy
What we are and what we'll be
Lives in every galaxy
Outro:
Looking up at midnight skies
I see myself in starlight's eyes
We are one with space and time
In this cosmic paradigm

Just a small town girl, living in a dystopian wasteland, trying to survive the next big Feral Ghoul attack. I'm from a vault that ran questionable operations on sick and injured prewar to postnuclear apocalypse vault dwellers. I like stars.
