SPACEMAN
Lost in Cosmic Yearning: SPACEMAN by The LilyPetals
Lyrics
I remember new years, I look across from you
Reflecting on past New Year celebrations, reminiscing while looking at the person across.
Doped up on our nightshade and the smell of cheap shampoo
Recalling a time of intoxication with nightshade, mixed with the scent of inexpensive shampoo.
Every time we saw, and every time we grew
Acknowledging growth and experiences each time they met.
Thinking together we'd stay the fool
Believing that they would remain foolishly together.
Everything we lost, whenever we were mean
Reflecting on losses during moments of conflict or negativity.
Corrupted by an event horizon dream
Feeling influenced or corrupted by a dream marked by an event horizon.
You could be my spaceman, lost and out of place
Expressing a desire for the person to be a guiding figure ("spaceman") despite feeling lost and out of place.
Higher than a tin can, fucked in dire straights
Describing a state of being high and in a difficult situation.
I could lose my mind here if we don't get this right
Fear of losing sanity if the situation is not resolved correctly.
I'm lying on our memories, breathing in time
Lying down, reliving memories, and synchronizing breathing with time.
Everything we thought, any time we touch
Recalling shared thoughts and emphasizing the significance of physical touch.
Cosmic horizon's burning up
Describing the intensity of cosmic horizons, possibly referring to powerful experiences.
Everything we did, everyone we hurt
Acknowledging mistakes and the pain caused to others.
I only wanted to learn
Expressing a desire for learning and personal growth.
You could be my spaceman, lost and out of place
Reiterating the desire for the person to be a guiding figure ("spaceman") despite feeling lost.
Higher than a tin can, fucked in dire straights
Describing a heightened state of being, possibly intoxicated or overwhelmed.
You could be my spaceman, lost and out of place
Repeating the call for the person to be a guiding figure despite feeling lost and out of place.
Higher than a tin can, fucked in dire straights
Reiterating a state of heightened intensity or difficulty.
You could be my spaceman, lost and out of place
Persisting in the desire for the person to be a guiding figure despite feeling lost.
We're alone in the corner and we're flying away
Being alone in a corner, possibly metaphorically, and flying away together.
Away away away
Emphasizing the sense of distance or departure with repeated "away."
Away away
Continuation of the emphasis on distance or departure.
