Lyrics

Cold machinery hums beneath my feet
Like a tired choir praying through the heat
The Earth's a marble drowning in the black
No turning wheel is ever bringing me back

I signed my name inside a book of ghosts
For all the hungry nations raising toasts
They call me brave in headlines made of gold
But courage feels a lot like growing old

There's a photograph taped beside my bed
Your summer dress, the blue scarf round your head
I talk to you though no one hears a sound
Two hundred million miles from sacred ground

And every dawn arrives without a sea
No rain against the windows here for me
Just crimson dust like blood upon a veil
And static singing through the solar sail

I'm falling into Mars
Into the red horizon
A lonely pilgrim drifting through the dark
Tell the world I saw the stars
Not as gods, but hopes that burned
Like little promises too far from home


The scientists speak softly in my ear
Their careful words dissolving year by year
Transmission lag has stretched our lives so thin
By the time love arrives, it's already been

I walk alone inside this rusted dome
A king with no one standing by his throne
The silence here's a language of its own
It turns a man to iron, stone by stone


And if there's life beneath this frozen land
If ancient rivers carved these empty hands
Then maybe every desert has its say
Before the things we treasure fade away

Still every night I dream the ocean tide
Your sleeping body breathing at my side
Then morning comes in ultraviolet light
Another borrowed day
Another endless night


I'm falling into Mars
Into the red horizon
A lonely pilgrim drifting through the dark
Tell the world I saw the stars
Not as gods, but hopes that burned
Like little promises too far from home

I'm fading into Mars
Into the red horizon
The first to cross the unforgiving dark
Tell them I was not afraid
Just terribly alone
Carving out a place so far from home
