If you could entrust the controls to me

We would be bounding through galaxies

Like we were

We’re aimless, adrift, and we’ve

Become secure in our lack of speed

Do you concur?

Suddenly a jolt, now warning lights

An engine pours smoke, let’s fly despite what it bodes

We will explode

What for you was just a flight

Was the last hope for me

I wish we were like-minded

Now I know that it’s inevitable that we’ll never be

I wish we were like-minded

And you loved me more than everything that starlight can reach

I wish we were

I know you’re gonna scream “we’ll detonate”

A little bad luck and you’d steer us back to Earth

We lurch in ascent, I accelerate

The moment is now if you want to eject, love

But when we explode

We become the stars

I wish we were like-minded

Now I know that it’s inevitable that we’ll never be

When we were like-minded

We would boldly go into the unknown at laughable speeds

When we were

On a boundless quest through everywhere that starlight can reach

I wish we were

I wish we were like-minded

I remember how unshakeable our alliance had seemed

I wish we were like-minded

Now I fly to my preventable death alone as can be
