[Verse 1] The Bubble fades On the map behind Another jump Another point of light Heat on the glass A cooling drive I check the route Like proof I'm still alive [Pre-Chorus] So many stars Nobody near I speak out loud It sounds strange here [Chorus] A line through the black And I follow it in Someone went before me Someone will again No one in the cabin No voice coming back Still a thousand hands On a line through the black [Verse 2] Your name comes up Beside a sun I read it twice Before moving on No face to place No voice to know Just proof that you Were this far from home I skim the light And fill the tank Then draw another line Across the blank [Chorus] A line through the black And I follow it in Someone went before me Someone will again No one in the cabin No voice coming back Still a thousand hands On a line through the black [Bridge – spoken] Sagittarius A. Explorer's Anchorage. I try to picture a light left on for strangers. The distance counts down. It doesn't feel smaller. I choose the next star. [Final Chorus] A line through the black And I follow it in Someone went before me Someone will again No one in the cabin No voice coming back One day you'll find my name On a line through the black [Outro] One more sun. Then another.
