Story Behind The Song
i was thinking about how we spend nine months as aquatic beings and the rest of our lives breathing air, with the contradiction of actually being able to drown! the transition from 'fish' to 'animal' at birth is a truly remarkable and enigmatic event!
Song Description
in essence...there is no such thing as an 'alien environment' since the 'bubble' in which we exist, may be interpreted as the universe in the accepted sense of the term or it may be any degree smaller, down to our own physical body.

Lyrics
Sunrise to sunset...sunset to dawn
No matter who you are or whose side you are on
What goes round comes around no matter where you're from
Outside & inside...this is your home
fish out of water...but still prone to drown
Ashes to ashes when we return to the ground
Your flesh & my flesh; our skin & bone
Outside & inside...this is our home
bridge
No matter how we try to make the pieces fit
to find the pattern and the path
just keep an open mind the answer lies ahead
cuz what you see is what you have
Instrumental
The stars that shine tonight...they look so far away
But that's where we used to be & now we're here today
So just remember we're not alone
Outside & inside...this is our home
Salt of our mo-ther earth...we are the seeds of time
Scat-tered in the emp-ti-ness with no-one left be-hind
We are the pro-geny; see how we've grown
Out-side & in-side...this is our home
