heavenward we look
to the stars we imagine
a world of water and joy
stars beyond our reach
familiar suns with scorching heat
to the east, to the west
everything for you from you

downside earthside
geosynchronos orbit
it looks like we're moving
but we're not

familiar, habitual
strange moons on strange blues
dark skies
we're really not in the mood

empty the streets
and you'll find me
find me, find me, can't you even see me?

we're asking simple questions
wanting simple answers
just somewhere to lay weary heads
because just living takes a whole lotta living
