In another system on another star where we're worlds apart, and you,  the maverick breaks another heart is when
I see you greeting Peter at the gate which is yet another state in a different place
a case of system overload and racing headlong to explode into a million different stars and black holes overflowing with quasars
( I don't know what quasars are but they're to be found around a different star)

And still we kick against the night as if it might give in, the night where love lies thin on the eiderdown,
the night in the shambles of a once proud town,
we are the song out of tune,
we may as well be seagulls winging it
across the face of the moon.
