Introducing Cosmic Space

Introducing cosmic space

It's an ordinary place

All the captives all the time

All the ghosts they'll never find

I sail around the stars

Collecting specimens in jars

Some would struggle with their faith

But they never could escape

You see how it feels

To hold the magic over them

Those the ones you could've been

But they never let you in

I thought about the times

Always forming into lines

It's now or never day

No more ordinary way to be

All these shifting shapes are beautiful in different ways

These living artifacts remind us how we fill our days

And it seems they're evaporating after all

Introducing cosmic space

Shows the splinter time we waste

Through the tendrils, through the spine

Through the ghosts we'll never find

Exploding through the dreams

Of these ghosts we've never seen

Lie in miniature estates

Collapse as aspiration breaks

Alright, we can defeat the interlopers if we try

As they disappear from sight

Wheel them gently towards the light

I thought about the times

Always forming into lines

It's now or never day

No more ordinary way to be

All these shifting shapes are beautiful in different ways

These living artifacts remind us how we fill our days

And it seems they're evaporating after all

And it seems they're evaporating after all
