deadleaf mantis – sea the stars lyrics

theres a hole in the ocean above us
underneath all the foam
scratching the surface of the unknown
the search for a goldilocks to call home
im past the reach of the outer limits
were all familiar stars lose their glisten
will you make it long enough to receive transmission
the hands on the face allow me to complete my mission
will you be

everyone loves a space fairing man

awaken from hyper sleep
count out all the years i’ve had too much to dream
every being being controlled by a string
the only thing keeping their feet planted to the green
we are the sewn seed
sweating for cash that can’t buy back the time it takes
don’t get wise too late
this happens more than often
wondering if i’ve launched from the earth in a coffin
following the spinning comp-ss
a spiraling consciousness
im lost in a mirage
imagine a montage of ménage à trois
i wanna go back to what once was
prior to our televisions getting thinner
no t.v. dinner
before our universe was altered and off center
can you remember the memories
before they stained the berensteins
hanging out wasn’t phone screens
no reason to act happy
the whole worlds a stage
eat, love, play, its all the same
no matter how the surroundings change

everyone loves a space fairing man
cradling the skeleton in his hands
sea the stars
cradling the entire skeleton in his hands

captains log supplemental
the universe is mocking me
that haunting giggle
how many rations till this becomes a struggle
i left my hope with my love
across the lightyears
that truth slowly sears
shower my cheeks, computer speaks
a habitable planet
hyper slumber set to wake before the vessels landed

blurry eyes shoot open
such a sight to see
atmosphere purple and pink
glowing trees
leaves applaud with the breeze
such a sight to see
i can’t help but sing
my boots hit the crust
i send out the beacon
far beyond what we were seeking
every test left me gleaming
perfect for our species
i just had to guide them
then i stopped smiling
looming figures on the horizon
paralyzed, eyes at their widest
silhouettes split the void
illuminated speech
their leader mimics my voice

4th dimensional beings
something out of a dream
brought to their ship with out being told a thing
destination blue and green
suspended in a sun beam
am i diving back into the sea
position compromised
cl-ssified as a threat, makers met
need to extinguish us before their past tense
i need and update on the status
no time for questions
no need for practice
pulling the skeleton close as we tango on the casket
the shine presses my skin before sunset
i got one eye close staring past it
frantic and ecstatic
striking matches on the mattress
bringing light to the monsters that couldn’t be a imagined
a quick glimpse of p-ssion
instincts take over before i can fathom

i peer into the blinking chasm
open the airlocks the creatures slow in reaction
could i reach escape velocity
bending fate
a fraction of oxygen in my tank
i walk the plank

plummet into space
scintillation escalates
the fleet of war ships turns to swirls
closing both eyes
spiraling to the world
only minutes to evacuate
jet propulsion activates
fix my gaze
release a shallowed breath gasp
realizing i’m the only human left
leaves dressed every building and street
parallel lines of grading green
nature she reclaimed her complexion
so many questions with only moments for reflection
did anyone survive and reach a safe haven
is there any significance to my creation
another variable in the equation easily erases
sensing the disruption in the tides
i get ready for the ride

everyone loves a space fairing man
cradling the skeleton in his hands
sea the stars
cradling the entire skeleton in his hands
sea the stars

reveling in all the beauty and sounds from the earth
before the burst of silence
turning to the horsemen riding on the horizon
the pale horses diamond widens
raising his sword triumphantly
the blinding paleness brightens

swallowed by a blue moon
the beams twist, the waves swoon
stop questioning if this is an existence wasted
find solace in the journey not the destination
