Building Blocks

[Intro] [Verse 1] From the mountains high to the ocean deep Everything you see, everything you keep Solid, liquid, gas, floating in the air It's all just matter, everywhere Tiny little pieces, far too small to see Atoms buzzing 'round, full of energy Protons, neutrons, locked inside the core Electrons spinning, wanting something more [Chorus] Matter, matter, everywhere you look The substance of the world, written in the book Of everything that is, the building blocks we know From stars above to seeds below Matter, matter, solid, liquid, gas It makes up every single thing that comes to pass! [Verse 2] Hold a rock, it's heavy, rigid, and it stays Water flows right through your fingers, slips away Air is all around us, invisible and light Changing states with temperature, day and night Heat it up, it spreads out, molecules take flight Cool it down, they huddle, holding on so tight Mass and space it occupies, that's what matter means The stuff of all our wildest hopes and dreams [Chorus] Matter, matter, everywhere you look The substance of the world, written in the book Of everything that is, the building blocks we know From stars above to seeds below Matter, matter, solid, liquid, gas It makes up every single thing that comes to pass! [Bridge] You can't create it, you can't make it disappear Just change its form, year after year Even things we cannot see, dark and strange and vast Are types of matter, built to last The fundamental fabric, woven through the void Every particle employed [Chorus] Matter, matter, everywhere you look The substance of the world, written in the book Of everything that is, the building blocks we know From stars above to seeds below Matter, matter, solid, liquid, gas It makes up every single thing that comes to pass! [Outro]
