Mars

I have my rewards and finally I’m patient
Enough to know the ending isn’t far
And I’d do anything to never leave you
Maybe we never get to Mars

Me and Arthur on a round
Eyes fixed on the ground
Through the folded ladder rungs
Can’t believe the things he found

To the fair down by the Rec
Here the Afonllywd flows
Shallow, mean and treacherous
Won’t let me down there on my own

We’re still hungry we’re still thirsty
Though we’re ripe and fit for bursting
How did we let it go so far?

A wasp is crawling on my leg
Disappears inside my boot
Stars of white and no one knows
Forever as the moment froze

I’m still waiting for the sting
Through everywhere and everything
Maybe we never get to Mars
