Lyrics

Intro

Silver wing

Higher now

Heavy drift

Into the void

Verse 1

Weightless

Feet off the floor

Dusty gravity doesn't live here

Gravity died

Left it behind

Sailing through the red mist

Sailing through the cold

Cold

Quiet

Empty

I see the curve of the marble

I see the end of the map

Chorus

Headed to the stars

Headed to the stars

Leaving the weight

Watching the blue fade away

Headed to the stars

Headed to the stars

Post-Chorus

Up up up

Higher

Higher

Up up up

Verse 2

Starlight

Burning on my skin

Prism patterns on the dashboard

Glass

Breakable

Safe in the vacuum

Falling toward the sun

Falling

Fast

Faster

Engines humming a new hymn

Engines screaming for more

More

Oxygen

Low

Chorus

Headed to the stars

Headed to the stars

Leaving the weight

Watching the blue fade away

Headed to the stars

Headed to the stars

Drop

Space destiny

Space destiny

Guitar Solo

Bridge

No more ground

No more walls

No more breath

Just the glow

Just the pull

Just the gold

I see the center

I see the source

I see the truth

Chorus

Headed to the stars

Headed to the stars

Leaving the weight

Watching the blue fade away

Headed to the stars

Headed to the stars

Outro

Gone

Further

Gone

Further

Deep into the black

Deep into the black
