Terraformer

Space flight and resiliency
Inseparable entities
Fight to get along in the long dead blink
Some endless journey of discovery
Space flight and intimacy
Long responsibility
Boredom spreads like disease
Come take your toll on me

Meant to go to the opposite star
How'd we ever travel out this far?
Architecture of the mind and heart
Sprouting worlds of the diligent art
Meant to go to the opposite star
The human race is a patient's war
Architecture of the mind and heart
Tread softly if you have to hard

Space flight and resiliency
Inseparable entities
Like lichen to stone or roots to tree
Do I even have it in me?
Space flight and intimacy
Long responsibility
Can't cut the boredom out of me
Come take your toll

Meant to go to the opposite star
How'd we ever travel out this far?
Architecture of the mind and heart
Sprouting worlds of the diligent art
Meant to go to the opposite star
The human race is a patient's war
Architecture of the mind and heart
Tread softly if you have to hard

As phantom limbs of a superpower
(How'd we ever travel out this far?)

Meant to go to the opposite star
(How'd we ever travel out this far?)
The human race is a patient's war
(How'd we ever travel out this far?)
Architecture of the mind and heart
(How'd we ever travel out this far?)
Tread softly if you have to hard
