The pilot light in her mind is lit
Fueled by gas and oxygen
There's smoke pouring from her cabin
I'm broken down on the side of the road
Pounding on my typewriter
Lighting the pages with my lighter
I stay locked away for days in my cave
Safe from anything that wants harm my way
Off to Yachats I'll sail away
But i got pulled back hard
From the loud sound of the oceans roar
Gravity, What a bitch, I'm stranded..
Upstream... without an oar.
Will i ever shake this nervous feeling?
Having panic attacks in the middle of dreams
like an orca, I never fully fall asleep
But i got pulled back hard
From the loud sound and I lost my sight
Couple hours pass and I'm stranded
In the dark... under the ice.

I get by fine with lack of sleep
I wake up every morning waiting for you to leave
I projected my heart all those horrible scenes
then i started Portside or started to sing.
but you've been out of my head, its fantastic.
You've been gone so long, you're jurassic.
You gave me a reason to live, I gave you a reason to try
But evolution took course and we slowly died..
we slowly died.
So make your run now for the south 'cause it's over once you have let time run out..
but please take care now, don't make yourself bound 'cause it's over once you have been tied down..
it's over once you have been tied down..
yeah, it's over.. when the game is done.
and it's over.. once you have... won.

When you sleep, You twitch, are you dreaming about heaven?
The fear of God rising above the ocean
Took heavens keys and threw them in the Sea
Said "this should teach you all a lesson"
Well you laughed said you're done and you left me with one thought
What did you mean when you said that you were done?
said "i'm going to a place where i can count the last few seconds of the sun" for fun
There's a place in your head where all this evil is created
Where a powerful man could stand totally defeated
In his fiery tomb his red evil God awaits
So my friend, I'm sorry for all your hurt.
You were once alone, now you're standing in a church
With one hand on your heart, the other one is touching his face
Your knee on the ground, praying to be saved
Now I see the stars and i imagine i am with them
Watching the world as if it was just television
And i watch the news, oh god in makes me sick.
I watch the news, oh god it makes me sick.
I watch the news.. oh god..
It's clear to see we're gonna pay for what we did!

Saturn sits alone up there in the dark,
a light bursts into globes and the circular stars.
and I hope you can see this satellite pass.
So I drive for days, Hoping it's your way,
you disappeared into space, you disappeared from everything.
but I hope it was good and I hope you water that tree, cuz everything you never understood was everything.. you meant to me.
So i'll work on this overfilled canvas,
when I'm finished, you can have it.
I'd hang it on your wall..
if I only knew where you are..
And you dive just like a whale,
but you reached the shallower shore
you call out for your pod..
the death toll rises more..
but I hope that you are good.
and I hope you water that tree
cuz everything you never understood
was everything.... you meant
And I hope you can still hear me
and I hope that it was good
cuz everything you could never understand
was everything... I wish you could..

Standing all alone in a crowded space
Watching all the faces fade away
Standing all alone as a grown child
It's another year, It's another painted smile.
Standing all alone in a crowded space.
Standing all alone in a crowded space.
Standing all alone in a crowded space.
Standing all alone.
Standing all alone on a highway
Watching all the whales migrate
Standing all alone in a paper state
Waiting on a call from another place
Standing all alone on a highway.
Standing all alone on a highway.
Standing all alone on a highway.
Standing all alone
Standing all alone on a highway
Standing all alone on a highway
Standing all alone on a highway
Wishing you were home but you're just too far away.

I stopped at a restaurant on the sea side of Yachats to catch up with the time
I knew if i was lucky, I'd get there real early, have a drink and still catch the tide
But i was wrong.. I'm always wrong
And the moon is the same as it was when i was born
Nothing has changed, it just hangs in the dark
The planet isn's green, we've killed everything
There's only you and me, at least we spin consistently
And you should learn to live a little
And i should learn to learn a little
And you will lie, lie a little
Then i will burn, then die a little.
But i wil try to solve the riddle of why we're alive and why we're so brittle
And i would go, discover globes, Why'd we make our home..
And i would go solve the poem of why'd we make our home?
Then i would go, solved the code of why'd we make our home..
Why'd we make our home.. on this lonely little globe.

Aurora is hanging low
The planets are coming down

Maybe we are descendants from Mars
Maybe we aren't who you thought we are.
'Cause we hang here in space.. could have fallen from the sky..
The whole universe is just a bubble in your eyes.
'Cause we're still expanding.. pretty soon we wont exist
No, we'll just be nothing.. but honey don't you throw a fit
'Cause your energy, that'll last forever..
But if i die before you, if I'm put in the ground I can be happy knowing my grave has your flowers.
One day your kids will take a rocket ship
To the outer limits of our solar system
They'll be the first to walk on a planet gone wrong
And they will unlock where we hail from
But the world is ending right before our eyes
Yeah, we all are dying at a cost or higher price
And the green just won't grow, it'll all be cement
Then our legs just won't go, we'll be forced to forever sit on this little globe.
Maybe we are descendants from Mars
Maybe we aren't who you thought we are
'Cause we hang here in space.. could have fallen from the sky
The whole universe is just a bubble expanding...
