Flightless Astronaut
Lyrics
A bed, dusty sheets
Sleepless dreams
A boy, standing small
A poster on the wall
There's a man beneath the words
Held stuck from earth by tape
Some wrinkled paragon
That boy stared straight
Some hopeless vagabond
Sweet, moon on fire
Satellites
Came and passed me by
Another night gone wasted
Wonders on the wall
That boy stared straight
Some flightless astronaut
The night, beneath the world
All black and pearled
And the wind, has seen it all
Even this wall and moon and man and astronaut
The earth and stars and christ the day he was born
And he said "everything mattered" when he knew nothing mattered at all
Everything matters, nothing matters at all...
