lyrics

Verse 1/Intro:
(First voice:)
Let your song morph to my guitar
Sing me white dwarfs and neutron stars
Tell me more, I’m never far behind
You’re a force too great for gravity to bind
Let the waves of your collapse caress my
Mind

Verse 2:
(Second Voice:)
I knew you back in the day
Of blinding lights and escapades
What became of you? You fade away,
Your feet upon the ground, your mind in outer
space
Your heart not on red carpets your shoes
grace

Chorus:
Fly me to the moon
I just got here, don’t burst my bright hot air
balloon
Supernova you’re too hot
When you burn out don’t claim that you just
missed your shot

Verse 3:
Don’t you know I’ve come to see
The world in a different key
Mixed up my core celestial chemistry
Drawn all the more to your magnetic field
Don’t let your flames engulf what’s really real

Verse 4:
All I want is to touch the other side
Leave this world for bluer skies
Shooting sparks across the great divide
That star-crossed lovers point to from where
they lie
My name alive upon their lips long after my
light’s died

Chorus 2:
Quiet nights of quiet stars
Tell me, sun, when was the last time you took
things too far?

Bridge:
Well I wish you could see
The laws of physics won’t agree to disagree
I just wanna feel the solar wind on my skin
Before I cool up into astral debris

Well I had a dream
I was at the center, man, and everything was
orbiting me
The heavens are free, so I don’t wanna wait a
million years
To live out all my wildest dreams

Verse 1+2:
Let your song morph to my guitar
(I knew you back in the day)
Sing me white dwarfs and neutron stars
Tell me more, I’m never far behind
(What became of you? You fade away)
You’re a force too great for gravity to bind
Let the waves of your collapse caress my
mind
(Collapse, caress my mind)
