Dust

I was born on a rainy night
A Wednesday of February
I cried when I opened my eyes
That was the first time I saw the light

I remember the thunder's roar
I never felt so small
So I hugged my knees and drifted to sleep
That was the first time I ever dreamed

While I'm looking on to Heaven's gates
You're longing for your good old days

We are what we celebrate
We celebrate who we are

Look what's become of us
Aren't we all just made of dust
Don't we all just wanna go home
Don't we all just wanna belong

When I look up at the stars
The city disappears
I breathe in deep, I'm at perfect peace
From the top of my head to the soles of my feet

While I ponder on my funeral
You're planning your next carousal

The more you know, the miserable
You become what you know

Look what's become of us
Aren't we all just made of dust
Don't we all just wanna go home
Don't we all just wanna belong

Oh how I long to meet my maker
Oh how I long to know my creator
Oh how I long
Oh how I long
Oh how I long to be home

I was born on a rainy night
