lyrics

When did it change?
I've always been strange, you know

What if it hurts
To be brought down to earth too slow?

Floating and weightless
There's a pebble in my spaceship
Rattle around, little earthbound stowaway
Can't get it out, can't make it go

Away in the distance
There's a world that glistens
Pretty and round, calling me down
Down down down down down down down down

Keep on waiting for stars to fall
Keep on waiting for nothing at all

Should I descend?
Do the math in my head, I say no

What if I'm wrong
Didn't carry the one, what then?

Cold and impartial, heart partially frozen
Legs hardly even working after all of the floating
Too close to the sun, too far from a sky
Crushed by the feeling just of being alive

On the surface of a body that I'd rather forget
It's a jungle, people jumble up cause and effect
From the ether all the features sorta start to connect
The other factors fall away and you just solve for x

I'd rather get complex than do guess and checks
I'd rather talk by text than become ill-expressed
I'd rather glide and fantasize about what happens next
Than drop this ship from here into a lower orbit

So before it takes me
Round the side I'll say goodbye
Tiny pinprick in the sky
I know that it's your wish and that, I truly regret
But no you really shouldn't hold your breath

Keep on waiting for stars to fall
Keep on waiting for nothing at all
