Rocket Science
Forging Trails of Heartache
Lyrics
I bet you're out there seein' stars
I believe you're out there experiencing success or happiness
In someone else's eyes by now
It seems like you've moved on with someone else
While I'm just out here in the dark
Meanwhile, I'm stuck in a difficult situation
Sparkin' up and burnin' out
Engaging in destructive behavior, possibly substance abuse
This Backwoods you had rolled for us
Referring to a type of cigar, implying a shared experience
But it don't pack the same old punch
But it doesn't have the same impact or significance
Your memory's gravity
Your memory has a strong pull on me
And it just keeps me down
It keeps me feeling down or depressed
Yeah, if I found a way to make it past the moon
If I could overcome the challenges
I bet this heart would aim itself right back at you
My heart would still be directed towards you
Ain't no way underneath this sky
No way to move on under this vast sky
I'm gettin' over you, I can't get that high
I can't move on from you; it's a difficult task
But I'm leavin' smoke trails tryin'
Attempting to move forward, but it's challenging
Forgettin' you's like rocket science
Forgetting you is as complex as rocket science
No, there ain't no fuse that sets me loose
No external force helps me break free
And sends me soarin' somewhere else
I'm not propelled to a better place
Tried gettin' gone but it ain't no use
Trying to move on, but it's futile
I can't get past the way it felt
Can't forget the emotional impact
When you took off at the speed of sound
Recalling a departure at a fast pace
'Cause that goodbye still hangs around
The goodbye lingers in my thoughts
Said space and time were what you needed
You mentioned needing space and time
But, damn, I need you now
I still need you despite that
Yeah, if I found a way to make it past the moon
If I could overcome the challenges
I bet this heart would aim itself right back at you
My heart would still be directed towards you
Ain't no way underneath this sky
No way to move on under this vast sky
I'm gettin' over you, I can't get that high
I can't move on from you; it's a difficult task
But I'm leavin' smoke trails tryin'
Attempting to move forward, but it's challenging
Forgettin' you's like rocket science
Forgetting you is as complex as rocket science
Like rocket science
Reiteration of the complexity of moving on
I got a feelin' this feelin' ain't got a fix
Feeling suggests there's no straightforward solution
Yeah, and takin' these hits remind me what I miss
Experiencing difficulties reminds me of what I've lost
If I found a way to make it past the moon
If I could overcome the challenges
I bet this heart would aim itself right back at you
My heart would still be directed towards you
No, there ain't no way underneath this sky
No way to move on under this vast sky
I'm gettin' over you, I can't get that high
I can't move on from you; it's a difficult task
But I'm leavin' smoke trails tryin'
Attempting to move forward, but it's challenging
I'm leavin' smoke trails tryin'
Continuing efforts to move on
Forgettin' you's like rocket science
Reiteration of the complexity of forgetting
