The Earth looks small from up here Blue like a memory, sharp and clear Cities glow like fragile veins All we loved inside those flames I never knew how much it meant Till distance taught me what was spent What held me wasn’t solid ground It was the love I carry now Floating home, I finally see Home was never gravity It’s the names I still hold tight In the dark, in borrowed light Floating home, no solid ground Still I know where I’m bound Home is not where we’ve been It’s what we take when we ascend Windows hum with quiet thought Machines that learned what we forgot To pause, to feel, to understand How far we go with open hands The past grows soft, not left behind It drifts with me, redefined Every orbit pulls me through Still aligned with something true Floating home, I finally see Home was never gravity It’s the names I still hold tight In the dark, in borrowed light Floating home, no solid ground Still I know where I’m bound Home is not where we’ve been It’s what we take when we ascend Mars is waiting, calm and wide Not a place for us to hide Just another mirror showing who We become when fears fall through Floating home, we don’t escape We expand our inner space Every step beyond the known Makes the universe feel close Floating home, clear and slow This is all I need to know We don’t lose what made us whole We just learn to let it go As the blue fades out of view I feel closer than I knew
