Astronaut

I ain't no astronaut
Been a lot of things that I'm not
One of those things was being made for you
I've been scared my whole damn life
Holding on and I don't know why
This ship full of dynamite
Better get me to the fucking moon

Yeah, I'm blasting off in the night
Waving my hand, saying goodbye to the sky of blue
Sparks coming out the back
Something's telling me to eject
But I've got nothing to lose
Houston, we may have a problem
'Cause I'm up here, I ain't falling just for you
'Cause pretty soon I'll be the man on the moon
If I can land this rocket ship made of holes and glue

They say that's a sad story to tell
I laugh and say, "Oh well"
I'm sure it will hurt like hell
But I'm going with or without you
Yeah, it's a long way down
But my feet ain't even on the ground
And your picture is fading out
From a selfish point of view

Yeah, I'm blasting off in the night
Waving my hand, saying goodbye to the sky of blue
Sparks coming out the back
Something's telling me to eject
But I've got nothing to lose
Houston, we may have a problem
'Cause I'm up here, I ain't falling just for you
'Cause pretty soon I'll be the man on the moon
When I land this rocket ship without you
