about
We all seek to find our place in the world and the universe. My parents were from Northern England and rural Ireland and met in New Zealand where I was born. I went to school there but have lived in Australia for most of my life. One of the most important things in life is identity, our connections with family, past and present. Nobody Knows works lyrically through these ideas, whilst also noting the fact that the atoms in our bodies were forged in nearby exploding stars, so we metaphysically come from nearly everywhere
lyrics
If you could see with the eye of a hurricane
Could you then find your way home again
Or would you be some eternally wandering ghost
Nobody knows
So is my home in the south part of Auckland
Or up in the north of industrial England
Or is it over in the rain green fields of Ireland
How could you know
Nobody knows
According to all of the science books
We were made in the stars
All of the atoms inside of us
Were made in those exploding stars
So we come from almost everywhere
We are made of almost nothing at all
Atoms are small and empty
So it would seem that my real home
Is out in this local corner of the Milky Way
Zeta Re7culi Cygnus and Alpha Centauri
Nobody knows how could you know
If you could see way into the future
What do you think it would hold
Would it be some amazing adventure
Or would it just be growing old
If you could see way into the future
What do you think it would hold
Would it be some dystopian nightmare
Or would it just be growing old
Nobody knows how could you know
Nobody knows how could you know
Nobody knows nobody knows
Could you then find your way home again
Or would you be some eternally wandering ghost
Nobody knows
So is my home in the south part of Auckland
Or up in the north of industrial England
Or is it over in the rain green fields of Ireland
How could you know
Nobody knows
According to all of the science books
We were made in the stars
All of the atoms inside of us
Were made in those exploding stars
So we come from almost everywhere
We are made of almost nothing at all
Atoms are small and empty
So it would seem that my real home
Is out in this local corner of the Milky Way
Zeta Re7culi Cygnus and Alpha Centauri
Nobody knows how could you know
If you could see way into the future
What do you think it would hold
Would it be some amazing adventure
Or would it just be growing old
If you could see way into the future
What do you think it would hold
Would it be some dystopian nightmare
Or would it just be growing old
Nobody knows how could you know
Nobody knows how could you know
Nobody knows nobody knows
