Minimall - Orpheus lyrics

Holding on to a thread of starlight And it's slipping through my hands And without oxygen I've got a little over ten minutes left to Sit back, wave hi, and sigh And say all my goodbyes Gaze into the night and sigh And let go as the darkness catches me Oh I'm alive but not for long I bet you think That it's all your fault even though you didn't do a thing But this is how it goes When you're living in deep space You can't trust the stars in this sector They keep their secrets close And I am a victim, a martyr Of making sure things go well But they won't I know Cause I'm stuck out here The coiled snake of tubing tripped me out of the airlock And I went flying away Away away away [Chorus] Don't come after me I won't make it halfway It'll set you free if you never look back And out here in the void I can hear the call of the ones beyond the ring Around the black hole So save yourself I'd like to stay I'd like to stay And I can see you through the porthole on the side of the ship And you are singing As you're gearing up to reach into the dark and save me From the outerworld remnants and high tides I shimmer in the night But you cannot hear me as I scream For you to go back inside Cause the radiation's coming I can see it And we'll both get caught in the storm In the storm [Chorus] Don't come after me I won't make it halfway It'll set you free if you never look back And out here in the void I can hear the call of the ones beyond the ring Around the black hole So save yourself I'd like to stay I'd like to stay But if you stay we'll see the glow And feel the pull of the black hole And you can hold my hand through my glove And we'll see the light And it's all so bright
