Strange thing about gravity… sometimes a room can hold a whole Universe Stay with me… until the bar lights fade… Stay with me… until the stars awake… You ask me what’s the worst thing in the emptiness of flight Is it silence in the engines or the endless frozen night No… the worst is meteor thunder when the stars begin to rain when a station turns to fire and the sky becomes a flame You ask me what I fear the most past the orbit far from blue Is it darkness without ending or the years drifting through No… the thing I fear the most in the endless silent blue Is a lonely drifting lifeboat flying farther away from you Stay with me… until the bar lights fade… Stay with me… until the stars awake… And this bar… this little nowhere is the only thing I’d save If I had to leave the planet for the dark beyond the day Because here is where I met you here I learned what joy can be Something brighter than the starlight greater than infinity Lights above us turn to planets Music drifts like cosmic air Every voice becomes a signal floating slowly everywhere Glasses shining like small galaxies Neon burning through the night And for just a fragile moment everything feels right Hundreds of drifting lifeboats cut through burning station air Through the fire-torn halls of metal through the shattered light out there Through the storm of broken starlight through the future torn apart Capsules burning through the darkness scattering through the dark Lights begin to shake around me Voices drifting out of time Music breaking into echoes like a failing satellite Glasses blur into the starlight Neon melts into the dark And the room begins to shiver like a dying engine spark Somewhere others may be drifting far… Still no voice returns from where they are Stay with me… until the bar lights fade… Stay with me… while the capsule drifts away… Strange thing about gravity… sometimes a room can hold a whole Universe
