O to be as light as the sky, To have the earth look up at you and admire your beauty, To be loved by the birds and hugged by the clouds I lay onto the icy gravel and look towards the heavens. Am I too heavy? I will know what love feels like... It is lonely, I want the night's glittering infinity, To feel the world shine for me and me only I want to chase the big planets of the sky as i did the ***** i fetched on concrete lawns I was born to love unconditionally, and so i was chosen for something very special Scientists take me from the cold and give me a home, They will give me strange food and show me things beyond my comprehension. I want to understand... It's scary, they put me in ship much too small for my already thin body. There is no light and i'm shivering from fear,... Or the cold, I can't seem to spot the difference between the two The doubt begins to set and I am alone again, But they tell me I'm prepared to fly, Higher than the birds, Higher than the sky. I plan to be as extraordinary as i promised... Far from my home the exploding adrenaline scares me, The tip of my tail is hidden between my shaking legs, And my heart races faster than the breath that heaves in my chest There is this everlying, unfamiliar, stink It won't go away Something is wrong and i can feel it Feel it all There's a faint sound of flaking metal in the distance It is of no comfort to me. I am afraid... The flames warm my worries and within breach of the cold atmosphere, I can feel the embrace of death caressing me The impending doom starts to fade away and there is only peace, Finally peace. My canine body is now long gone, Rained onto Soviet soil, But they are unsurprised. Was I never supposed to come back? I know how love feels. They will remember me When they look up at the sky and watch my spirit play with the constellations Although it remains unfinished, My mission on earth has been completed... I have kissed the stars for humanity -To Laika, the space dog

A rocket ship cannot be orange and red with white open hatches. A rocket ship cannot live only on cotton. A rocket ship cannot have wings of blue taking it high. A rocket ship must be up in the blue sky. A rocket ship needs to see stars above. A rocket ship is not yours to keep. A rocket ship blanket, however, May be orange and red with white open hatches, May exist on your soft cotton And have wings of blue which take it high, though, Not in the sky to see the stars above, but Remain yours to keep as you nuzzle for comfort In a world where real rocket ships rise.

Rocket Ship Blanket
It was like a rocket-ship. They're both flying because of gravity. Sharing dreams and future together. It was like a rocket-ship. Their love burst into flames. Approaching into their own galaxy. It was like a rocket-ship. And now he is looking up above. With all those twinkling stars; As the woman's souls flew away into the sky. Tears flowing into the man's eyes. Because he never though; A rocket-ship made him remember his wife.

Rocket-Ship
Let me sink my fangs into you To stop me from turning blue Let me get to what's within What lies beneath your skin Like a vampire Your sweetness I need to acquire Let me drink before I expire Don't let me pass from this world and retire With out the sweet taste of you upon my lips In your hands cradle my hips As slowly into me you slip Exploding like a rocket ship Welcome me like the dying light I will not leave you felling contrite I'll make everything just right I can excite I can delight Meet me my dear at midnight Under the bright moonlight Take me to the stars Let us zoom past mars Grace my veins with your intoxication You are my only fixation Like a drug, a need To your power I concede I hear your call I'm your victim after all
