Lyrics Cosmogony - Björk

Cosmogony

Heaven, heaven’s bodies
Whirl around me, make me wonder
They say back then our universe was an empty sea
Until a silver fox and her cunning mate
Began to sing a song that became the world we know
Heaven, heaven’s bodies
Whirl around me, make me wonder
And they say back then our universe was a cold black egg
Until the god inside burst out and from its shattered shell
He made what became the world we know
Heaven, heaven’s bodies
Whirl around me, make me wonder
And they say back then our universe was an endless land
Until our ancestors woke up and before they went back to sleep
They carved it all into the world we know
Heaven, heaven’s bodies
Whirl around me, make me wonder
And they say back then our universe wasn’t even there
Until a sudden bang and then there was light, was sound, was matter
And it all became the world we know
Heaven, heaven’s bodies
Whirl around me and dance eternal
