I'm leaving this planet An alien that was never intended Finally contacts it's mothership The shapes and sounds here no longer make sense to me I'm not certain they ever did Denial was my first encounter in this place Information was my undoing Curiosity makes for madness But where logic should be sits a sponge soaked and bloated No way to understand it's origins The oxygen here tastes of metal I breathed in not knowing it's toxicity The tree's grow smaller every year breaking under the weight of progress No clear explanation for this "God" you all speak of But so many eyes grow deluded when hearing it's name Intergalactic flight seems only logical I say so long you tragic race I will always remember your depraved dances and hysterical collisions I will do my utmost to forget the monsters you call beautiful Peace

Flight
I'm leaving this planet An alien that was never intended Finally contacts it's mothership The shapes and sounds here no longer make sense to me I'm not certain they ever did Denial was my first encounter in this place Information was my undoing Curiosity makes for madness But where logic should be sits a sponge soaked and bloated No way to understand it's origins The oxygen here tastes of metal I breathed in not knowing it's toxicity The tree's grow smaller every year breaking under the weight of progress No clear explanation for this "God" you all speak of But so many eyes grow deluded when hearing it's name Intergalactic flight seems only logical I say so long you tragic race I will always remember your depraved dances and hysterical collisions I will do my utmost to forget the monsters you call beautiful Peace
