lyrics
We were hominids ranging the Savannah
Started telling stories to one another
Became the planet’s storytellers chasing our dreams
This language in our genes and collective memes, yeah
Some think all we need are scientific facts
To explain our world and tell us where were at
But stories always arbitrate where facts are concerned
Our stories are the supervisors of our worlds
Every story will change
I’m getting worried about the future of the planet
Not the chemistry but the life that is on it
Were up against the limits it seems there’s only minutes
To make the changes needed to these stories we’ve invented, yeah
Every culture has stories about the who the why the what
The problem we’ve got is that a lot of these will not
Slow our extinction, our execution
Seduced by stories that offer no redemption
Every story will change
It’s not easy, these are stories that I know
I am driven without knowing so it doesn’t even show ohhh
I, that word again, that’s me, irreducibly
Sacred, I am valuable, master of my destiny
Call it narcissistic, but you have clearly missed it
I will self-maximise and I will not resist it, yeah
It’s in the system, these habits keep insisting
I’ve earned the easy life, expectations keep persisting
I look into the mirror it charms then condemns
I see the future, but these stories hem me in
Every story will change
Every story will change
Every story will change will change Rpt
Ah …………… Ooh ………
Every story will change
Every story will change
Every story will change will change Rpt
Ah …………… Ooh ………
The first story that must change starts with me x2
Gonna let go, gonna let go, I’m gonna let
Gonna let go, gonna let go, I’m gonna let
Gonna let go, gonna let go, I’m gonna let
Gonna let go, gonna let go, I'm gonna let
Gonna let go, gonna let go, I'm gonna let
Gonna let go, gonna let go, I'm gonna let
Gonna let go, gonna let go, I'm gonna let
