Spaced Out Orbit

Well, I saw something that resembled that place

On the other side where we were together

On the moon we walked and kicked up lots of dust

We made a space cloud of us

And all that stuff we were afraid of

We had a home there

And in the glow we'd stare at each other

And nothing other than each other

And I thought nothing could ever touch us

Except the space dust all around us

But now there's something digging down into the crust

Trying to find a ocean there

Under the home we share

They set their weight down

Like an earthquake we cracked

Was it the government who sent them?

Was it their scientific vision?

To destroy past recognition?

They did approach without concern

And when they warned us of their plan, we didn't listen

And they would take our gentle light

Our moon and our whole life

Replace what we had grown with their ambition

And we would be sure to fail

If we began to form an opposition

Nobody's right, they say

Nobody's wrong, they say

We are generous and good

And we will have it our way

Yes, we will have it our way

They say, "Now take all of your dust

Your love and all your trust

We're sending you upon your final mission"

And then I found myself in orbit

And the last thing I observed

The last words that I heard

Were, "Don't forget to send in your transmissions

We expect you to report on your condition"

Then I saw something that resembled that place

On the other side where we were together

They will take our gentle light

Our moon and our whole life

They will take our gentle light

Our moon and our whole life

They will take our gentle light

Our moon and our whole life

They will take our gentle light

Our moon and our whole life

They will take our gentle light

Our moon and our whole life

They will take our gentle light

Our moon and our whole life
