Failed Launch

One minute mark
T-minus one minute
T-minus one minute and counting
Now in the final mode of our countdown
At the 30 second mark
Swing arm number one will retract
T-minus 50 seconds
At the T-minus 50 second mark
The power transfer takes place

When, when they told me that
I could fly through the stars
I thought that they'd figured it out
They'd healed all our scars

Ten, nine, eight
The ignition sequence has started
Six, five, four, three, two, one
Zero

Then, when the countdown began
I think I heard over the air
That the darkness will set in
And the leadership didn't care

As I look back at home
I'm surrounded by darkest sky
I have to hope for what we have
At least we learned to fly
