Hey, I'm miles away from Earth
I'm up in space
I'm drifting toward a frightful unknown place
To prove that what I saw was real not fake

Hey, the oxygen's not getting to my brain
It's wandering, my thoughts cannot refrain
From drawing Martians who traverse the red terrain
Building their canals
I hope it rains
I hope it rains

Hey, I could turn around and go the way I came
I've burned up all my fuel
I need a flame
The gravity is pulling me away

And I drift closer
Closer
Closer
