Red planet, blue planet, old planet, new planet.
Doesn’t matter which it is you choose.
If it turns out dull you can always move.
Pick another from the countless sea.
Then count down to one from three.
Its that little time to arrive.
Obviously superior than to only survive.

Uni sun, two sun, young sun, dead sun.
Scarcely believe these sights I see.
Nothing will ever take them from me.
As I sail across the unending black.
Never would I want to take it back.
For this is right where I wish to be.
Space is the epitome of being truly free.

Set course, smile and wave.
Be taking joy to my someday grave.
Doubt it’ll be anytime soon.
Long ways off is my doom.

High sea, low sea, in sea, no sea.
Yet there is so much more to sail.
All of it better than the old Holy Grail.
For this new beginning could change the stars.
More so than humanities first journey to Mars.
Important as it was indeed.
That was only a stepping stone, you better believe.

Set course, smile and wave.
Be taking joy to my someday grave.
Doubt it’ll be anytime soon.
Long ways off is my doom.

Stare out at the field of stars.
In no way is it like living behind bars.
All you see are points you can visit.
Settle only for what makes you think, this is it.
Whether that be toiling away days making farms.
Or building your dream home out amongst the palms.
There is plenty of imagination to conjure.
Even if you wish to be a space pirate wonder.
Dogfighting out in the fields.
Zigzagging through debris with failing shields.
This galaxy is your oyster, so do as you please.
Carve out an existence that makes you feel at ease.

Simple desire that you wish to conspire.
Light the way but won’t commit.
Time again is splitting you sick and twisted.
Grasp this mantle and fly to…
The edge of pandemonium.
Settled down without someone.
Brittle are my bones that break.
You like me can only take.
Victims on the frontline.
Subjected to endless crime.
Tortured sense from beyond the pale.
Wrenching free from your hands ’til you fail.

Resist a calling meant to breed disarray.
Hatched buried from you to me.
Counting crows with a long crooked smile.
Reach out and claim…
The edge of pandemonium.
Settled down without someone
Brittle are my bones that break.
You like me can only take.
That which was never yours.
Pockmarked with so many flaws.
Enigma fake wrapped in no mystery.
Prize from these hands your cold dead facsimile.

For what is not yet could never well be.
Statement I give to you freely.
With a sad empty husk of battered skin.
Reciting these words over again.
The edge of pandemonium.
Settled down without someone.
Brittle are my bones that break.
You like me can only take.
That is why you loathe me so strong.
For you believe you are never wrong.
Sorry to burst your bubble with some truth.
I have plenty of evidence to provide as proof.

Shattered and cast into utter despair.
Xenophobic but still standing here.
Polluted sense of self importance proclaims…
I am better for I am unclaimed!

Understanding ain’t always easy.
It can take a lot to not turn sleazy.
Become a selfish arrogant fool.
Take it out when life won’t bow to you.

But sometimes you need to be the hero.
Even when you feel like a downtrodden zero.
For not every dice roll can be a win.
Just have to try all over again.

Making changes does take time.
Rush them and you could cross a line.
Cause more damage than you can fix.
Burn bridges until you’re cut off and isolated.

Then you will never be the hero.
End up stuck as a complete loner zero.
With every hand stacked against you.
Options left numbering few.

So don’t push hard or complicate.
Work smart but don’t be a git.
If you’re decent then good will come.
But if you’re the asshole then you’ll be up the creak without a paddle.
See if then you can navigate the rabble.
Survive the falls that lie up ahead.
Make it out without becoming another of the unnamed dead.

Separation was on the cards long before it came.
I could see the signs but carried on, all the same.
Still when it struck the sting was no less.
Left sitting here there was pain, I must confess.

Severed.
Cut away.
One less person in my life from today.
Removed.
Set free.
Wish you the best as our ships sail away.

Not alone in how these things unfold, I am aware.
Doesn’t mean that them or me do not care.
Its just the way that this life, sometimes goes.
Part of how it forever ebbs and flows.

Severed.
Cut away.
One less person in my life from today.
Removed.
Set free.
Wish you the best as our ships sail away.

While the end leaves me sad I am pleased for the time we had.

I got a want to need need need.
And so I hunt with speed indeed.
For there is no route that I won’t walk.
Remember that before you decide to talk,
About your heresy lined deep desire.
Or you might end up on a funeral pyre.

Get out, get down, your it.
Sick of this selfish stupid shit.
Step out, step down, get lost.
You can’t bare incoming cost.

Milk remorse until I snap.
Throw all your crap right back.
For too many times you’ve spread lies.
Now negativity circles you like flies.
Reap what you sow, so its all on you.
Never escape this split in uneven two.

Get out, get down, your it.
Sick of this selfish stupid shit.
Step out, step down, get lost.
You can’t bare incoming cost.

With a wall filled with weapons you still cannot see.
Born from madness is travesty times three.
As was the way when the sky did fall.
Beg, steal and borrow as if you’re on call.
Hunter with no name for you sold out your friends.
Much like I decided to skip to the end.
Not cause my patience is wearing thin.
I just wanted to see how my life will be ending.

Get out, get down, your it.
Sick of this selfish stupid shit.
Step out, step down, get lost.
You can’t bare incoming cost.

I walk these roads alone.
No one here to guide me home.
Solitary but choice and chance.
Sometimes it stings like a lance.
Yet never do I change my course.
Might have to be done by force.
Though do I think it would change me?
No, I believe this is who I am always gonna be.

Singular.
Not pariah.
I built this palace.
Its my empire.

Number one.
I am selfish.
Live for me.
Not for everyone.

Take the line I want the most.
People linger in my mind like ghost.
Fallen down enough to build my bridge.
Could’ve done with help a smidge.
Still carried on without a hand.
Upon these mountains I now stand.
Sometimes hollow but I will not relent.
Humoured by how I refuse to ever repent.

Singular.
Not pariah.
I built this palace.
Its my empire.

Number one.
I am selfish.
Live for me.
Not for everyone.

Your point of view might not quite align.
These words are personal not inclined…
To be inclusive or inviting.
You might want war but I see no use in fighting.
Upon these grounds that I tread.
Viciousness only turns you dead.
Watch and learn are my own words to me.
Ever present aim to feel truly free.
Without a noose always threatening.
Or tragedy to bring in the sting.
Lost more than I can recall.
Sadness spreads but I refuse its claim to rule.
For misery does not deserve a stake.
So I smile to make the darkness break.

Singular.
Not pariah.
I built this palace.
Its my empire.

Number one.
I am selfish.
Live for me.
Not for everyone.
