Airlocks & Atmospheres
Yeah
You shouldn't have to pay my way
You shouldn't have to clear my name
In spite of all the lives I've lived
Let me lay, let me lay down in space
You should have left me here on this rim world, what a waste
Scavenging for our food at the waterline, what I say
You shouldn't have to pay my way
You shouldn't have to clear my name
In spite of all the lives I've lived
Let me lay, let me lay down in space
This planet is lonely with no stars at night
Suffering for sustenance in this barren blight, oh why
The rockets are glaring red on the landing craft, what I say
Empty craters and mining towns for the O.P.A, what a waste
You shouldn't have to pay my way
You shouldn't have to clear my name
In spite of all the lives I've lived
Let me lay, let me lay down in space
You held me at arm's length in the jetway
A Belter's embrace before we both got spaced away
Why did you come back here
Knowing the price on your head was set in spades?
Why did you come back here
Knowing the price on your head was set in spades?
Why did you come for me?
Now we must both pay with our light
It's a debt that I can't repay
Why did you come for me?
Now we must both pay with our light
It's a debt that I can't repay
And, why did you comfort me?
When I couldn't take the great, great pressure of this endless space
You shouldn't have to pay my way
You shouldn't have to clear my name
In spite of all the lives I've lived
Let me lay, let me lay down in space
You should have left me here on this rim world, what a waste
Scavenging for our food at the waterline, what I say
You shouldn't have to pay my way
You shouldn't have to clear my name
In spite of all the lives I've lived
Let me lay, let me lay down in space
This planet is lonely with no stars at night
Suffering for sustenance in this barren blight, oh why
The rockets are glaring red on the landing craft, what I say
Empty craters and mining towns for the O.P.A, what a waste
You shouldn't have to pay my way
You shouldn't have to clear my name
In spite of all the lives I've lived
Let me lay, let me lay down in space
You held me at arm's length in the jetway
A Belter's embrace before we both got spaced away
Why did you come back here
Knowing the price on your head was set in spades?
Why did you come back here
Knowing the price on your head was set in spades?
Why did you come for me?
Now we must both pay with our light
It's a debt that I can't repay
Why did you come for me?
Now we must both pay with our light
It's a debt that I can't repay
And, why did you comfort me?
When I couldn't take the great, great pressure of this endless space
