Listening to the sky
Waiting for a sign
That they can hear us
All the way down here
Listening to the sky
Hoping for a time
When they will find us
And guide us to the stars
But now
The stars seem
So far away
And here
On planet Earth
Humanity will stay
Flying oh so high
Flying in the sky
Yes they can see us
But they can't do a thing
Sitting down at home
Sitting all alone
Unaware that
The signal had been heard
But now
The stars seem
So far away
And here
On planet Earth
Humanity will stay
Form now
and for all time it seems
The stars will stay
Just out of our reach

Uncanny Valley Girl

She looks just like she does
In the pictures
Though her lips could be
A little thicker
Committee tested
Control group approved
Dictating
Her every move, oh
Manufacturing
An uncanny valley girl
Manufacturing
An uncanny valley girl
Almost human
But she's not quite there
Never showing signs of
The wear and tear
Winning all of the consumer awards
Mass produced to
be bought and sold
But don't buy now
Cause model two
Promises to
Be something new, oh
Manufacturing
An uncanny valley girl
Manufacturing
An uncanny valley girl
Almost human
But she's not quite there
Never showing signs of
The wear and tear

I'm so tired
Oh I'm so tired
And with the bombs going off in the dead of night
I haven't slept in days
We're so sorry
Oh we're so sorry
But when the general points and yells we all must
Do as we are told
But that's good enough
For me to fight
And in the dead of night
When brothers fall
We all must share the pain
But that's good enough
For me to fight
And when all is said and done
The final battle can't be won
We're so tired
Oh We're so tired
And with the horrors of war dancing in our heads
We cannot close our eyes
I'm so sorry
Oh I'm so sorry
But I must move on
Lest I remember the pain
In their cries
But that's good enough
For me to fight
And in the dead of night
When brothers fall
We all must share the pain
But that's good enough
For me to fight
And when all is said and done
The final battle can't be won

And so here we stand
At the end
Of the world
And so here we stand
At the end
Of humanity
Crashing down
All around
Six whole stories to the ground
Losing time and losing fast
This might be the very last
Even so
Even so
And the world fades away
As the frame gives way
To the open grave outside
He didn't see it coming
But that's what they all say
And the clock ticks down
As you cry out loud
Cause it's him laying there cold
You didn't see it coming
But that doesn't matter now
Crashing down
All around
No more tears
You ran all out
The things you said
You can't tell him now
And the things you did
Can't help somehow
And it goes
And it goes
Crashing down
All around
Six whole stories to the ground
Losing time and losing fast
This might be the very last
Even so
Even so

We Can Be More

This might be
Our last chance
To reach out
And touch the sky
This might be
Our last chance
To fly
Into the starry night
We can be more than
Just a forgotten memory
Oh
The time is now
Escape with me
And you will
Be free
Reach out
And touch my Heart
Maybe then
You will see
We can be more than
Just a forgotten memory
Oh
We can be more if
Only you grab hold of me
Oh
