[Intro] Countdown clean, engines bite Suit sealed up, departure light [Verse 1] Ticket stamped for the red frontier No rearview glass, no reason here Cargo locks and a helmet click Earth gets small on the monitor strip [Pre-Chorus] Five, four, pressure falls Three, two, break the walls [Chorus] Take me to Mars, all the way Past the blue where the satellites sway Take me to Mars, burn the dark Leave our names beside the landing mark Red dust rising, boots touch down New horizon, no turning around Take me to Mars, all the way We came too far to fade away [Verse 2] Rations stacked by the cabin door Steel floor humming through the solar storm A paper map in a plastic sleeve One small promise: don't make me leave [Pre-Chorus] Five, four, pressure falls Three, two, break the walls [Chorus] Take me to Mars, all the way Past the blue where the satellites sway Take me to Mars, burn the dark Leave our names beside the landing mark Red dust rising, boots touch down New horizon, no turning around Take me to Mars, all the way We came too far to fade away [Bridge] If the signal breaks, keep moving If the hull shakes, keep proving No gold road, no borrowed crown Just a red world waiting now [Final Chorus] Take me to Mars, all the way Past the blue where the satellites sway Take me to Mars, burn the dark Leave our names beside the landing mark Red dust rising, boots touch down New horizon, no turning around Take me to Mars, all the way We came too far to fade away [Outro] Mars ahead Earth behind Engines cool Open sky
