Lyrics:
Where did you come from?
Where did you grow those bones?
Midnight is a mirror
Look up, your reflection falls.

All the pieces collected,
From debris left behind.
Now gravity is possessing me,
Electromagnetic mind.

Remember when you'd fly without wings?
How you loved, how you loved
to feel the falling.
Cross the universe on a string,
And start over,
Over.

Cause everything that we are was made in a supernova
Everything we are was made in a supernova
Everything we are was made in a supernova
Everything we are was made in a super....
nova.

In me stardust is living,
One billion years gone by.
So who’s going to stop me when it’s my time to fly?

No ordinary girl...
And you a cosmic sailor with an appetite for earth.

We wrap ourselves in this life.
We showered down, we settled,
From our home in the skies.

So watch out, jump back and get down,
The nebula is rumbling.
You better start running,
An explosion is coming.
Coming.

Cause everything that we are was made in a supernova
Everything we are was made in a supernova
Everything we are was made in a supernova
Everything we are was made in a super....
nova.

Where did you come from?
Where did you come from?
Where did you come from?
Where?
