Astronaut

Is this what it feels like
 When the world has won
 And you're just too tired
 To pick up and run?
 She wants to be an astronaut
 To disappear without a thought.
 There, there, there,
 I'll sing you to sleep
 And keep you safe and sound
 While all the other voices drown.
 Now, now, now,
 You're better than all of this.
 You're breaking down. We're still around.
 We're there, there, there.
 So she never thought it could be
 A worse carbon copy of a facsimile.
 And in my own way, I try to warn her.
 In the dark she paints herself into a corner.
 There, there, there,
 I'll sing you to sleep
 And keep you safe and sound
 While all the other voices drown.
 Now, now, now,
 You're better than all of this.
 You're breaking down. We're still around.
 We're there, there, there.
 There, there, there,
 I'll sing you to sleep
 And keep you safe and sound
 While all the other voices drown.
 Now, now, now,
 You're better than all of this.
 You're breaking down. We're still around.
 We're there, there, there.
