Satellites and Meteors, best friends of the Astronaut When no-one else will guide me on my way Dead and gone without a trace, just a man alone in space A man in space alone with naught but shame
I can’t lie I am ashamed So much easier to run from pain Cut my cord and drift away Make my lonely escape in outer space
Explorer of great things to be, there’s no reporting back from me A million miles is not too far away Broken hearts and untold lies, things are the things I leave behind The universe is far too small a place
I can’t lie I am ashamed So much easier to run from pain Cut my cord and drift away Make my lonely escape in outer space
Oh no astronaut Lost on the way, drifting off course Drifting away, of course Come in astronaut Pick up the phone, answer the call
I can’t lie I am ashamed So much easier to run from pain Cut my cord and drift away Make my lonely escape in outer space
