Cosmic Backlash (drmix)

[Verse 1] I climbed the poison air Past the reach of sight You had me split in two And exiled from the night I slid through the membrane Where the lungs can't stay alive No chute folded in my pocket No skin enough to hide Far above myself now I can't retrace the track I left my name at the threshold And the sky struck back Higher, higher, higher, still I lost the ground Lighter, lighter, lighter, till the dark came down [Chorus] Got me all messed up, I rose into the atmosphere You pulled me out of here Now I can't get back It's the cosmic backlash Yeah, the cosmic backlash I rose into the atmosphere Left my marks on starlight It's the cosmic backlash Yeah, the cosmic backlash [Verse 2] Cosmic was the only word Like a claw from the blur Language split at the border When I crossed into her I'd doubted if I hadn't been there in the black Watched the whole design collapse Watched the void look back Gotta feel it in your marrow, in the bones, in the blind Tell me, do you sense it now, are you still inside? Or are you gone again into the atmosphere While I'm welded to the dirt with the telescope in fear All I breathe is ruin, and all I know is this I want you back from every place You've vanished into, kiss by kiss [Chorus] Fire, skies, my eyes are Senders, can you see us there? Fire, skies, our world keeps turning Are you ever coming back? Fire, skies, the air is hungry It swallows lovers whole Fire, skies, and I'm still reaching Through the ash for your soul [Outro] I rose into the atmosphere You pulled me out of here Now I can't get back It's the cosmic backlash Yeah, the cosmic backlash I rose into the atmosphere Rewrote me in starlight It's the cosmic backlash Yeah, the cosmic backlash
