Time To Go

Hey time to go we can’t wait anymore
The trees have all turned yellow someone’s knocking at our door
Hey gotta go, I know you don’t feel so well
But if we hold out longer then they’ll leave us without help
Hey time to go- wake up my honey love
The radiation’s flowing and there are bright lights up above
Hey gotta go- why won’t you open your eyes?
Please don’t leave me solo as we go up to the skies
Hey time to go- oh your skin is getting cold
I’m sure that they can help us once we leave our little home
Hey gotta go they say they’re gonna leave you here
Please, honey, repeat what you whispered in my ear
Please don’t take me
Please don’t take me
Please don’t take me
Please don’t take me

Prepare For Landing
02:52

I don’t know how to float
My heart, it seems, is in my throat
All I know is that I’m falling down
I just saw the Earth from above
I just heard your very last call
And all I know is that I’m falling
As we rise to the heavens here we’re just farther away
From what we’ve known and where we’ve gone and where we’re going to stay
As we rise to the heavens here I just want to go home
I scream and cry and I pull my hair as we touch the brakes and
Prepare for Landing
Prepare for Landing
Prepare for Landing
Prepare for Landing
The air out here is crystal clear
Shining bright you can see the atmosphere
Not sure if I’m planted or falling
We’ve set down, this is our new town
I take it in among the massive crowd
Now I know for sure I’m falling
As we rise to the heavens here we’re just farther away
From what we’ve known and where we’ve gone and where we’re going to stay
As we rise to the heavens here I just want to go home
I scream and cry and I pull my hair as we touch the brakes and
Prepare for Landing
Prepare for Landing
Prepare for Landing
Prepare for Landing

Stop Looking At Me
02:38
|

|
Stop looking at me
Stop looking at me
Stop looking at me
I know that we’re all new here and that you just want a friend
But I just lost my bestest one and you won’t replace him
As we learn to live up here I can’t be by your side
This planet is so different and there’s just not enough time
You can’t make me
You can’t make me
You can’t make me
You can’t make me
Please don’t make me
Please don’t make me
Please don’t make me
Please don’t make me
Who will protect me up here I know I’m all alone…

Going Going Gone
03:07
|
|||

Outside is the only place I can go
Where I see beauty and things I didn’t know I could know
And I am going going gone
Going going gone
Going going gone gone gone
It’s the first time I’m happy since I left the below
And I miss you, honey, more than I can possibly show
But I am going going gone
Going going gone
Going going gone gone gone
If you were here you’d hate it- there are no trees
We live in plastic bubbles, lots of stars but no sea
Everyone’s going going gone
Going going gone
Going going gone gone gone
One more thing- they line us up just like mass
They count our heads just to make sure that the numbers all match
To make sure no one’s going going gone
Going going gone
Going going gone gone gone
I think I might go gone for a while
I think I might explore for a while…
Honey, I think you’d be so proud of me
I learned to zip up my space suit all along, it’s a breeze
And now I’m going going gone
Going going gone
Going going gone gone gone

Make Believe
03:25
|
|||
|
Once lovely and bright
The tears on my cheeks are a picture
Of the new thing I must be
As I crawl through the dirt and I’m running
Please don’t take me
If you’d opened your eyes
We could be here together exploring
The deep purple of night
The way that the plants glow in morning
Please come find me
And how I miss the ocean breeze
Up here there’s sand but no birds sing
We’ve replicated everything
But it’s not real it’s make believe
Make believe
Make believe
We make our air with big machines
We grow our food but it’s not green
We planted grass so it might seem
Like this is home, but it’s
Make believe
Make believe

Time To Go Reprise
00:55
|
|||
|
Hey time to go don’t know what got into me
I took a look around and snuck back in successfully
Hey gotta go so much more I wanna see
I think I found a creature- something moving in the weeds

Don't Know Why
03:33
|
|||
|
When I was young I read some books about the galaxy
I read chapter upon chapter of sci-fi and fantasy
But way back then we didn’t know what we all do know now
How other life was not a threat but humans are all cowards
I don’t remember how it happened, but I remember light
The sounds of mass explosions and the smell of burning fires
I remember screaming, I remember holding you
I remember thanking Planet Earth and all we put her through
And I don’t know why, no I don’t know why…
Now down below is ruined cuz we couldn’t make amends
Cuz we’re selfish and we’re stupid and we didn’t think ahead
And now we’re trying to re-create what we all had before
Everyone’s pretending but I know their hearts are sore
Everything is regimented, everything’s on time
Everyone is really busy with their new jobs and new lives
Whoever is in charge is doing a fantastic job
Of keeping us complacent, some have already forgot
And I don’t know why, no I don’t know why…
And I don’t know why, no I don’t know why…
Sorry friends I’m making a mess again
Kick up dust I’m making a mess again
You told me not to make a mess again
There I go making a mess again
Everywhere I go
Everyone I see
No one seems to know
What’s really happening….
And I don’t know why, no I don’t know why…
And I don’t know why, no I don’t know why…

Something's Out There
02:52
|
|||
|
Something’s out there, just not as we supposed
Perched like crows on telephone poles
Arms wide open to lure me in
As if to say “Give up, my friend”
Let’s not pretend
Let’s not pretend
I can’t see them, but I know they’re there
They have something they want to share
There’s life, I knew it, in a brand new form
Can’t see them but they mean no harm
I feel you, I said
I’m coming, my friend
Preach now, tell me why I’m falling asleep
Even though I’m not tired, just inquiring
Who’s in charge and why they’re lying?
Would you let me go if I did everything your way?
Everything your way?
Everything your way?

The Others
05:03
|
|||
|
I come bearing very good news
The Others, they want to meet you
Just open your heart and listen
That’s all you must do
No, you can’t see them, it’s true
Hush now and you’ll hear them soon
No, I’m not crazy- they found me
I brought them to you!
Feel them, they hold all the clues
Our whole human history, too
The secrets to enlightenment
We’ve been such fools

Should Have Known
03:41
|
|||
|
How can you leave me here
In this big black box where it smells like fear
How can you lock me up
Just because I saw what you didn’t want
Please, just let me out
I won’t speak a word, I won’t cry or shout
Please, you can trust me now
I won’t mention again that there’s strange life around
I should have known you would
Where are you taking me now
It’s so bright out here, I’ve gone so long without
Yes, yes you’ve broken me down
No I’m not afraid, I’m just all worn out
And I should have known you would
I’ll keep my head down
I’ll keep my head down
I’ll keep my head down
I’ll keep my head down
Please don’t take me…
|
||||
11. |
||||
|
Nothing’s out there, nothing at all
You are gone and I’m alone
Machines are breaking, supplies are gone
And bombs are being made once more
Just like before, just like before…

Farewell Song
04:07
|
|||
|
Hey time to go
Don’t mind me while you blow yourselves up again
I’m getting out while I can- watch me, here I go
It’s been fun but I’m going with the Others now
Front row seats as I watch you all destroy yourselves
I’d say that I’ll meet you in heaven
But I’m up here and besides stars, there’s nothing
But I’d rather die in the stars with the Others than with you
And you took my heart
And you took my love
But you won’t take me
Good bye
