Days of flying over the cities
I'm shot through tubes and through tunnels
but the traveling's pretty
I like the metal it moves me
I like the engine it moves me
I like machinery that moves me
gold city
abandoned city
sunken city
forgotten city
Everyone lives forever
nobody ever changes
that's the way our life is
cold and metal kisses
ride above the ocean
look down at the islands
space becomes an island
and now my heart
is pulled is stretched like elastic
like porcelain and pewter
and it cracks
like a bell, like a song
like the moon
it's what you love to do
against the window
I float outside
the sunspots in my eyes
no sound no air no heat
no pressure here
none
I step into space
feel the light graze across my face
and I tap my oxygen gauge
to make sure I'm still awake
and I close my eyes
