Song meaning by Jon: "It's definitely dealing with my lack of belief in an afterlife, but also my belief in the majesty of the universe and how awesome it is to be part of it. It's nothing I haven't talked about before but I think this music's just right for talking about it. The idea being: I might not around as a person, but my atoms are gonna be floating around right til the end, which is cool and sort of empowering, but humbling". (Taken from Radio New Zealand interview, September 2010).
Lyrics
This is no mistake Turn to look to the future Hope it's not too late Finally get it to go Did you forget yourself? There's always one hand feeding the other And if there's nothing else Well then there's nothing else You can forget yourself Stand up I am the fire in the air I'm in the cracks in the earth I am the final year Of this universe This universe Don't let it go to waste You know that some things have no solutions And if there's no mistakes You should forgive yourself That belongs to no-one else Stand up I am the fire in the air I'm in the cracks in the earth I am the final year Of this universe This universe This universe This universe This is no mistake Turn to look to the future Hope it's not too late Finally get it to go I am the fire in the air I'm the cracks in the earth I am the silence you hear From the universe This universe This universe This universe
