[Intro]
(Eric, look at me)
(This is Waveboys)
(Go)
The vacuum will suck me in (Yeah)
Spit me out a different man (Let's go)
My atoms lay rearranged
To project a soul that's been born again
(Uh, oh, let's go)

[Chorus]
Life inside this vessel gets so lonely lookin' back at earth
Five years to a term in outer space aboard the challenger
Every time I stare into the stars I feel my stomach hurt
Just tell me you miss me as I float across the universe

[Verse]
Slop through these tubes feeds into my body's stomach purse
A shamе the life we livе trained twenty years to reach this calibre
Comet belt blues leave me a raw emotion scavenger
Ground control will navigate our course, I'm just a passenger
(Passenger)
Nights get cold in this wormhole fold
Twenty minutes go by and she's twenty years older
Old voice notes feed my heart pure gold
I'm a century away but I feel so much closer (Let's go)
With airlock engaged, the world is my stage
Sure, it's crazy fuckin' work with even how much I'm paid
It takes one wrong move and I'm nailed in my grave
I've been weighing out the piece of it with heavy blind faith
(Yeah, go)

[Chorus]
Life inside this vessel gets so lonely lookin' back at earth
Five years to a term in outer space aboard the challenger
Every time I stare into the stars I feel my stomach hurt
Just tell me you miss me as I float across the universe

[Outro: Sewerperson, David Gyasi, Matthew McConaughey & Bill Irwin]
Life inside this vessel gets so lonely lookin' back at earth
Five years to internment, outer space aboard the challenger
(Just tell me you miss me as I float across the universe)
Every time I stare into the stars I feel my stomach hurt
Just tell me you miss me as I float across the universe
I've waited years
How, how many years?
By now, it must be—
It's twenty-three years, four months, eight days
I stopped believing you were coming back
(*W-W-Waveboys*)
