Darkside of the Moon @mklogiq REMIX

Intro

Ten, nine, strap in, check the gauges twice

(Ignition)

Mum on the phone said wrap up nice

Verse 1

Strapped in tight, got the checklist on my knee

(Copy that)

Backed by the night, Houston counting down to me

Thrust at the base and the cabin frame quakes

Must be the pace, every rivet in it aches

Earth in the porthole, shrinking down to a dime

Worth every queue and every form, every time

Mum taped a photo by the oxygen gauge

(Hi Mum)

Run through the drill, turning page after page

Pre-Chorus

Round the back and the radio goes dead

Ground control can't hear a word I said

Forty minutes where nobody holds the line

Forty minutes where the far side's only mine

Chorus

Take a trip to the darkside of the moon

(Darkside)

Houston hears us back around noon

(Around noon)

Earth slips away and there's no one here to see

(No one)

Out on the far side, it's the craters and me

(Just me)

Verse 2

Boots in the regolith, it gives like flour

Suit pumps oxygen, counting every hour

Sun on the rim, same one that hits our hall

Fun fact, the far side ain't dark at all

Never was dark, just a side we never knew

Like the long night shifts that my mum got through

Prop up her photo on a rock that I found

(Facing home)

First in the family to get up off the ground

Pre-Chorus

Round the back and the radio goes dead

Ground control can't hear a word I said

Forty minutes where nobody holds the line

Forty minutes where the far side's only mine

Chorus

Take a trip to the darkside of the moon

(Darkside)

Houston hears us back around noon

(Around noon)

Earth slips away and there's no one here to see

(No one)

Out on the far side, it's the craters and me

(Just me)

Bridge

She said "ring me when you land, love, don't forget"

I can't ring nobody, haven't come round yet

Clock back home says it's half past ten

She's on the sofa with the telly on again

Final Chorus

Round the far edge and the headset kicks back in

(Houston)

Ground control's cheering, you can hear the din

(Copy that)

First thing I ask isn't fuel, it isn't flight

It's "patch me through to Mum, she's been up all night"

(Hi Mum)

Told her the darkside's got the same sun as our street

Left her on a rock with the planet at her feet

(Darkside)

Outro

Photo on a rock, still facing home

(Facing home)
