Lyrics

Another time another place
A hollow universe in space
I took a trip to see the sights
That will be blacker than the night
One way ticket no returns
My shooting stars are vastly burnt
On the edge that you can see
Let’s shoot the moon you and me
I’m not particular you’ll see
Just a lonesome galaxy
Shadows and the stars
We will not return
Humanity won’t save us At the speed of light
Shadows and the stars
We will not return
Humanity won’t save us We slip into the night
I’ll say a mass for you and wave
Shooting plasma from my grave
Event horizon lost in space
Running in a human race
I don’t know where I don’t know why
But somehow back in time again
I’m on the edge that you can see
I’m not particular at night
A single party calling me You won’t be tracking me by sight
Shadows and the stars
We will not return
Humanity won’t save us At the speed of light
Shadows and the stars
We will not return
Humanity won’t save us We’re slipping through the night
Shadows and the stars
We will not return
Humanity won’t save us At the speed of light
Shadows and the stars
We will not return
Humanity won’t save us At the speed of light
Shadows and the stars
We will not return
Humanity won’t save us At the speed of light
Shadows and the stars
We will not return
Humanity won’t save us At the speed of light
We’re slipping through the night
