Ad Astra

Will you rise from your slumber this one last time?
Blink and miss the world go by you
Float among the stars just like
Those who came before you did
Keep in mind that you leave behind
A life no one will know for a while
Take your time and enjoy the ride
A moment lost in time is a moment gained in space
Fly to the edges of the thoughts you embrace

Rise and shine the rhythm's fine
Another day among the constellations
And if you can leave an open line
We'll send a message round this next rotation
Once we come around the moon and into range
We're out to jam to the space station
Trained for this in all our simulations
Live it up, this chance for exultation

Tethered onto the satellite again
Wish to be at the other end too
Distant isolation wears on
Those from below you miss
But even now as you as you think about
The consequence if no one's around
And every time you close your eyes
Consider lines you write as your guidance offers change
Influencing the outcome, turning the page

Rise and shine the rhythm's fine
Another day among the constellations
And if you can leave an open line
We'll send a message round this next rotation
Once we come around the moon and into range
We're out to jam to the space station
Trained for this in all our simulations
Live it up, this chance for exultation
