Disco Inferno The Atheist's Burden

Tekst piosenki

I caught a dawn chorus this morning
And it was a show-stopper
I’m rising early again, and it’s great
I took a Hell of a chance
And it’s paid off handsomely
Now it looks like everything is right

And the sky was deep blue, and the air was ice-cold
I look at the sky quite a lot
Don’t you know?

Cause I don’t know what the future’s got in store for me
But it’s gotta hold more than the past any day

Now I don’t care if the past has left marks on me
Who can’t assess their own damage with their own two eyes?
God knows how we did it
I guess we’re all just scrabbling around in the dirt–
We just aim for the sky

There’s so much pessimism around that it’s frightening–
Makes you wonder where it’s all gonna end
But if you get up real early–say 4:30–and look around
You’ll see the world before the cynics have got out of bed
