The Rocket
There were flags and banners
Blue skies forever
Everyone gathered
From near and far
And we watched the rocket
Bound for darkness
Break upon us
Like a falling star
So we gathered the ashes
From the trees and grass
And filled up our houses
Safe on the ground
But our hearts were heavy
With the shame we carried
The world couldn't bury
The darkness we'd found
But we mourn too often
How we've quickly forgotten
This world is rotten
Down to her bones
So let's find a rocket
And fly from the darkness
The stars lie before us
We'll find a new home
Hold on
Don't let go
Hold on
We've come so close
Hold on
The darkness grows
Hold on
(Hold on)
Blue skies forever
Everyone gathered
From near and far
And we watched the rocket
Bound for darkness
Break upon us
Like a falling star
So we gathered the ashes
From the trees and grass
And filled up our houses
Safe on the ground
But our hearts were heavy
With the shame we carried
The world couldn't bury
The darkness we'd found
But we mourn too often
How we've quickly forgotten
This world is rotten
Down to her bones
So let's find a rocket
And fly from the darkness
The stars lie before us
We'll find a new home
Hold on
Don't let go
Hold on
We've come so close
Hold on
The darkness grows
Hold on
(Hold on)
