The Astronaut

(album: Leaving Through The Window - 2002)

i've been sleeping with ghosts
i've been watching stars
crawling out of the sky
and i've been hoping
i'm close to the space man movies
i call my life

and i've been climbing ladders through time
i've got tunnel vision
but i'm doing fine
and i've been
watching stars coming off of the wall
and maybe if i'm lucky i can catch them
before you fall
and you are not alone

calling out to the astronaut
i need some of what you've got
i need to be high
crawling out of the world she brought
calling out to the astronaut
i need to be high

and i've been holding
this microphone
and i've been shouting out
but i think we're alone
and i've got platinum vision
and a tin foil touch
i've got you to propel me
but i still need so much
not to be alone

calling out to the astronaut
i need some of what you've got
i need to be high
crawling out of the world she brought
calling out to the astronaut
i need to be high

and you are not alone
you are not alone
you are not alone

calling out to the astronaut
i need some of what you've got
i need to be high
crawling out of the world she brought
calling out to the astronaut
i need to be high
calling out to the astronaut
i need some of what you've got
i need to be high
disappear in the world she brought
calling out to the astronaut
i need to be high

and i've got you to propel me
but i still need so much
