Relativity
[JULIE]
I stand on a marble
That hurdles through space.
My orbit and path are unique.
Around me the planets,
They swirl and they race,
While I stand here humble and meek.

I'm held to the earth
By a force I can't see.
But I strive ev'ry day to take flight.
I am energy.
I am mass.
I am light.

[RYAN]
So this is my journey.
My time on this rock.
I"ll chart out a course while I'm here.
With my modest resources,
And my eye on the clock,
My perspective unjaded and clear.
[JENNY]
I study the vectors,
With quantum techniques
And I pray my equations are right.

[JULIE, RYAN, & JENNY]
I am energy.
I am mass.
I am

[ALL]
Light as it speeds,
Light as it shimmers,
Light as it pierces the sky.
Something awakes,
It trembles and simmers.
A force that is yearning to fly.

[ANTHONY]
But the terrain is unpredictable.
Complex mysteries appear.
There are paradoxes here to undo.

[MIRA]
And now relatively speaking,
Something's relatively near.
[MIRA & ANTHONY]
And I'm relatively certain
It's a clue.

[ALL]
And it's you
On this marble,
Hurtling through space.
With a path just as thoughtful and wise.
I stand here I beside you
And I look in your face
And I see myself in your eyes.

Now look all around us,
More trav'lers, more eyes.
With passions they long to pursue.

[VARIOUS SOLOISTS]
And there's you.
And there's you.
And there's you.
You.
And there's you.
You.
And there's you.
And there's you.
You.
And there's you.
You.
You.
And there's you.
And there's you.
You.
And there's you.
You.
And there's you.
And there's you.
You.
And there's you.

And we're all on this marble
That hurtles through space.
Our orbits and paths are unique.
But with someone beside me
To measure my pace,
Somehow I'm not quite so meek.

So I learn what's important.
I evolve and I grow.
I reach for your hand and hold tight.
We are energy
Energy.
Energy
We are mass.
We are light.
