DEAD AHEAD

V6

Ship went to pieces I came to alone Nothing but wreckage Then I saw home No line on my waist No ground at my feet Blue in the distance Still out of reach I know that shape I’ve known it for years But blue became crimson The closer it neared No land No lights No clouds overhead If that’s really Earth Why’s it turning red? Dead ahead Dead ahead Thought I found home Found this instead Pulling me close By a thread I can’t see I ain’t falling toward it It’s reaching for me Dead ahead Pulling me Dead ahead Pulling me Too close DEAD AHEAD PULLING ME RED RED DEAD AHEAD I try to turn It turns me back Wreckage behind me Red underneath Nothing is touching me Still I can’t leave Faster and faster I start to descend Suit says I’m falling But falling should end Visor starts burning Numbers go dead Whole sky above me Is turning red I should be freezing I should be gone But every mile closer Something feels wrong Pulled through the clouds Pulled through the heat Fire on the suit Still I can breathe No chute No wings No way to slow down Then why am I still alive? DEAD AHEAD IT WANTS ME CLOSE DEAD AHEAD IT WON’T LET GO COME CLOSER COME CLOSER Red clouds split I see the ground Coming so fast I can’t make a sound I hit Nothing broke No blood on my hands No crack in my bones I stand up slowly This isn’t home Then the ground beneath me Beats once Again And something Miles beneath my feet Pulls
