lyrics
If the prescription said fuck you as in FUCK YOU,
would you just take it or even dose up a little bit,
to keep the anxiety at bay although you know
that existence equals shit?
And the struggle will go on.
Well, this very flight's been chosen as the last one to depart
without a trace or destination. I knew it from the start.
I'm never coming down, no. Never coming down no more.
And if the guide said JETTISON, what's first to discard to keep up velocity?
Leaving aphelion, escaping the dark will be the hardest part, you'll see.
I'm sure no one will notice and no one will see or hear
the bang that I go out with as I burn up in the exosphere.
I've been misreading these coordinates. I'm never coming down for…
The odds of leaving orbit, colliding out here in the dark
are pretty much infinitesimal, so I can do no harm.
I better keep the rest of fuel to descent into the night
For I'm a wreck that got no signals right.
I know the odds of leaving, I know the odds of leaving.
The odds of leaving orbit, colliding out here in the dark
Are pretty much infinitesimal so I can do no harm.
I better keep the rest of fuel to descent into the night
For I'm a wreck that got no signals right.
