Astronaut

Lyrics

Ten thousand miles above the Earth But I've never felt so low Radio keeps asking if I'm okay They can't hear what I won't show Mission control thinks I'm orbiting But I'm falling through my mind Every rotation takes me further From the person left behind Floating in the silence Where no one hears you scream The loneliest place in existence Is somewhere in between Staring at the planet from up here Everything looks so small All the things I thought mattered Don't matter much at all They trained me for the vacuum For the cold and lack of air But nobody prepared me for the weight Of having too much time to spare Floating in the silence Where no one hears you scream The loneliest place in existence Is somewhere in between Ground control to Major Tom But I'm not coming home Some descents don't need gravity To pull you down alone Floating in the silence Where no one hears you scream The loneliest place in existence Is somewhere in between
