[00:00.000] 作曲 : Matthew Philip Cerami
[00:00.000] We are the body cosmic;
[00:03.587] the interconnected flesh.
[00:07.604] Transfigured and forged in sidereal flame;
[00:15.263] dark matter genetics pulse through our veins.
[00:22.708] But life begins shattered;
[00:24.482] our first breaths are scattered;
[00:26.317] and we are born broken.
[00:33.801] Whatever I am is the creation of others.
[00:43.080] Coalescence
[00:49.272] Nurture molds what nature has made.
[00:56.799] I contain multitudes
[01:15.653] Shield the eyes—maternal fire;
[01:19.428] fragments of self in the distance.
[01:23.115] Cosmic background kin;
[01:27.030] ego dies in the frigid expanse.
[01:30.756] Identity killed by the knowledge of station;
[01:34.387] unwhole apart—everything together;
[01:38.233] the untethered celestial children of cosmic debris.
[01:49.205] Whatever I am is the creation of others.
[01:56.993] Coalescence
[02:04.857] Nurture molds what nature has made.
[02:12.166] I contain multitudes
[03:51.690] Lungs heavy with stellar dust;
[04:00.837] beating blood-red star hearts;
[04:10.516] eternal matter incarnate;
[04:18.993] is this the grand design?
[04:47.024] With the stars up high,
[04:53.704] or with the space between them?
[05:00.845] With the planets above,
[05:07.486] or with the suns that feed them?
[06:10.289] Where does the weight of the universe lie?
[06:14.681] With the brain that breeds thoughts,
[06:17.067] or with the mouth that speaks them?
[06:19.092] Where does the weight of the universe lie?
[06:23.441] With the limbs of a body,
[06:25.423] or with the muscles that move them?
[06:27.872] Here, from the vantage of stars,
[06:32.350] a revelation;
[06:34.196] no whole exceeds its parts.
[06:36.600] Every cell;
[06:37.917] a monument to insignificance.
[06:41.100] Every mind;
[06:41.684] an ode to circumstance.
[06:42.939] The truth that each of us must seek:
[07:36.791] Where does the weight of the universe lie,
[08:07.032] if not with me?
