In Space, No One Can Hear You Cry (Instrumental)

I am a non-critical system 
Stuck on an overcritical rock 
Lacking the skills, knowledge or training 
To qualify as an astronaut 
But could I be a passenger? 
Stowaway or cargo? 
Baggage? 

In space no one can hear you cry 
I smile and mouth the word goodbye 
I’ll seek out a colony 
Whichever one will take me 
Take me to the stars 

An object in motion stays in motion 
An object at rest stays at rest 
Sound waves can't travel in a vacuum 
And nobody passes my empathy test 
But I don’t need an audience 
Loneliness beats ignorance any day 

In space no one can hear you cry 
A satellite to resupply 
I’ll survey the galaxy 
Hitchhiking from rover to rover 
Take me to the stars 

In space no one can hear you cry 
Self-conscious of their naked eyes 
If you join in my fantasy 
I promise to accept you.
