lyrics

It all went wrong when I hit the ground
and I know that I never will be found
but I can't take another day
sick of being a castaway

I remember it like yesterday although it's been so long
the way my freighter struggled as I guided her for home
from stem to stern she shuddered, torque cracked bulkheads left and right
and worry crept up on me as I realized my plight

Hanging high in the methane sky is the taunting shape
Stranded in the gaze of Saturn
All alone and I'm far from home with no one to turn
Stranded in the murk of Titan

Klaxons started blazing when the ramjets exploded
Systems started failing as their circuits corroded
From stem to stern she shuddered as she crashed late in the night
and worry crept up on me as I realized my plight

Look to the sky as I wait to die, could this be the end
Stranded in the gaze of Saturn
All alone and I'm far from home with no one to turn
Stranded in the murk of Titan

So now I cry as I realize that I can't get home
My private tomb this moon of Saturn

(It all went wrong)

Somehow, it worked. Well.

tGDM believed that massive amplification was ALWAYS the answer. ... more
