lyrics

Attuned to the way of the stars, as we know that you are,
you're a child of the sun and the moon in the sky.
All of the cosmos is your stage tonight.

Let's count backwards from ten and leave the sphere that we're in,
for better places, stranger faces; wherever our spaceship takes us,
and into the light.

I'm looking back at myself,
just minutes before,
suspended in time.

Looking back at myself, looking back at myself,
just minutes before,
suspended in time.

Looking back at myself...

All the people know that I'm the master astronaut.

Removed from that vestige of time, through the eye of the mind,
we've resigned from the laws of the poorly designed.
In some other words, I guess we've tasted light.

Call on the cat, call your friends, 'cause you've found out where it ends. You realize they recognize we have hardly the clout or size to
engage in this fight.

I'm looking back at myself,
just minutes before,
suspended in time.

Looking back at myself, looking back at myself,
just minutes before,
suspended in time.

Looking back at myself...

All the people know that I'm the master astronaut.
