[Verse 1: Adam Gardner]

They'll find it on the stairs

Politely placed it there

Been so unkind without a hint

A warning sign for them

[Verse 2: Adam Gardner/Gardner & Ryan Miller]

Read my apology

Their hope of disbelief

But no denial changes things

No remedy ahead

[Pre-Chorus: Adam Gardner/Gardner & Ryan Miller]

I am not to be martyred

I am not to be worshipped

Did it not to be strong strong strong

I implicate no others in this crime


[Chorus: Adam Gardner & Ryan Miller]

I'm off on a rocketship

Prepared for something new

I'm off on a rocketship

Ecstatic with the view

I am scared of the things upcoming

And I want for the things I don't have

Cannot stand to be one of many

I'm not what they are


[Verse 3: Adam Gardner & Ryan Miller]

Will gather in my name

The morning will begin

It's all or nothing over there

Is teasing me again

[Pre-Chorus: Adam Gardner/Gardner & Ryan Miller]

I am not to be martyred

I am not to be worshipped

Did it not to be strong strong strong

I implicate no others in this crime


[Chorus: Adam Gardner & Ryan Miller]

I'm off on a rocketship

Prepared for something new

I'm off on a rocketship

Ecstatic with the view

I am scared of the things upcoming

And I want for the things I don't have

Cannot stand to be one of many

I'm not what they are


[Outro: Adam Gardner & Ryan Miller]

I am scared of the things upcoming

And I want for the things I don't have

Cannot stand to be one of many

I'm not what they are
