One Stop Astronaut

from Western Vulture by Free City Collective

	/

about

Why don't you come with me, little girl, on a magic carpet ride?

lyrics

"How can you be so calm and collected, my friend?"
She wondered, while her world was nearing its end
"The century was long, I've seen it rise, I've seen it fall."
I said, kindly, then I took her by the hand

I want you to get on my back
and let me take you wherever you want
I know you think everything's black
so, let me show you the edge of the stars
Fuck that one-stop-astronaut hack
I'll never leave you
I'll never be gone
Long as you can
I will keep you on my arm

My dictionary for the new world is full
The plants and bugs, my love, are all accounted for
"What if I need more than words?
I want you to show me proof."
She said, frankly, so I took her by the hand

I put every piece I find inside a big machine
Pieces that have caught my eye
Piece that I need

It's a desert
And the words are barely there
