"Born, Never Asked" lyrics

"Born, Never Asked"

It was a large room. Full of people. All kinds
And they had all arrived at the same building at more or less the same time
And they were all free. And they were all asking themselves the same question:
What is behind that curtain?

You were born and so you're free
So happy birthday
