To sing himself a song is to wish that he were gone from the place he once belonged

But now he floats away to the gaze of the sun

He’s on his own with a rope tied to his home

I could see you standing there planets away

I could feel you in space but it won’t be the same

I could see the light that’s keeping me safe

But I’m the spaceman who’s lost his face

Feel the black drip from ear to brain

I can hear myself thinking that I can wipe it away

As I grab at the syrup that plagues my mind

I find that it’s just me this time

It’s the thoughts he feels that keep him outside the atmosphere

Floating in the numinous space

Look at the moon

Look at the stars above

“Come find me love”

I could see you standing there planets away

I could feel you in space but it won’t be the same

I could see the light that’s keeping me safe

But I’m the spaceman who’s lost his face

Sinking in and out

I want to reach out and touch you

Sinking hold your tongue

I want to reach out and touch you

Out of orbit

Out of orbit

(Out of orbit)

(Out of orbit)

I could see you standing there planets away

I could feel you in space but it won’t be the same

I could see the light that’s keeping me safe

But I’m the spaceman and I’m home safe
