Oh
What a time to be alive
Ain't it special I arrived?
Unscathed and unstressed
Oh
As I lay soft and warm and bare
You know there's something in the air
That tells me this night's different than the rest
When the sun erupts with heat
They’ll drag our body through the street
They're gonna make me go, y'know
But I don't wanna
Momma, momma
Oh
They'll sacrifice us like a lamb
It's not exactly what I am
But who has time to be outspoken
Oh
The wind whispers like a prayer
Through my worried mother's hair
And her eyes read like something's broken
When the sun erupts with heat
They’ll drag our body through the street
They're gonna make me go, y'know
But I don't wanna
Momma, momma
Oh
The moment's sweet and calm and right
And I’ve got the rest of the night
Before they find out what we are
Oh
And I look up to the sky
And I open our young eyes
And there are
Twice as many stars
