Lyrics to Out of Orbit
falling through a fake escape
through holes that hold small questions of
the gumball spheres we sit and wait
and watch the galaxy teeth sink in
you're melting into a beautiful form
staring past the desire to understand
in through the eyes of familiar ghosts
and your children burn to a crisp
far far into the still distance
a city run by a ghost with fingernails
collecting face inside the tips of her hands
writing history as a dark silt brown
these feathers fell as bombs
we're slowly going down
you feel the fire that was burning out
and we took a falling out of orbit
another counted sign
neon neglected shine
you dim the world to see the light
as we took a falling out of orbit
this is all my fault
dragging conscious non-willing patients
a certain kind of land-fall
the words will really hit in
I've gone to undo all
buttons holding heart and holding head
calling out all pockets
we need a replacement
so bless these words and the heat they live by
hold your own breath while you cover their eyes and
breathe out poison
I know I know it's rhetoric tired
but all the unconcerned need a melody to smooth and average
numb and nullify
through holes that hold small questions of
the gumball spheres we sit and wait
and watch the galaxy teeth sink in
you're melting into a beautiful form
staring past the desire to understand
in through the eyes of familiar ghosts
and your children burn to a crisp
far far into the still distance
a city run by a ghost with fingernails
collecting face inside the tips of her hands
writing history as a dark silt brown
these feathers fell as bombs
we're slowly going down
you feel the fire that was burning out
and we took a falling out of orbit
another counted sign
neon neglected shine
you dim the world to see the light
as we took a falling out of orbit
this is all my fault
dragging conscious non-willing patients
a certain kind of land-fall
the words will really hit in
I've gone to undo all
buttons holding heart and holding head
calling out all pockets
we need a replacement
so bless these words and the heat they live by
hold your own breath while you cover their eyes and
breathe out poison
I know I know it's rhetoric tired
but all the unconcerned need a melody to smooth and average
numb and nullify
