Space Angel

I'm in a bind
Forever limited by unlimited time
As the heavens divined
I can never decide
How to bridge this divide
And keep us alive
Running out of supplies
I'm hypoxic without oxygen
Not enough air from an olive branch
Change is convenient like cotton gin
The operant conditioning and posturing
It's in the consciousness
Passed on posthumous
I have traveled light years
No flight plan, no space gear
When you can afford to be aimless, you're not blameless
I know the journey hasn't been painless
But we walk same paths
The streets lane-less
My molecular kin
In the end we'll be together again
How did we forget?

Space angel
Won't you come down and save us
When the ocean's ablaze
We'll remember your name
We'll be one and the same

Grasp past apathy
Tapped passively
Would you clasp hands with me?
Blast through the galaxy?
Blast tracks
It's ampathy, apparently
You can't teach philanthropy
I'll stick around like evergreen
To shepherd the weak
The feeble and meek
Cant abandon a sheep
I'm only as tender as a meat grinder
No time sir
I'm no kinder to adult nor kinder
Like tinder burn into star cinders
Skin dark Lindor or deep winter
I'm your defender
And thus must self preserve
Will scream until I am heard
No voice then we must burn
I can't wait my turn
I'll have the the last
Dead like canary in the mine shaft
What will you do when the bird stop singing?
When your kids stop smiling?
When the bells stop ringing?
When the pain starts piling?
And the shit starts flinging?
In the vacuum void
Not a noise, not a chirp
We're all inert
No value, no worth
And when she comes down to earth
We'll erase the hurt
Everything

Space angel
Won't you come down and save us
When the ocean's ablaze
We'll remember your name
We'll be one and the same

I'm in a bind
Forever limited (forever limited)
I need more time
I need more time

Space angel
Won't you come down and save us
When the ocean's ablaze
We'll remember your name
We'll be one and the same
