To the stars

Verse 1

Midnight hits, the bedroom feels too small

Shadows climbing up the fucking wall

Everybody's sleeping, but my mind is wide awake

Thinking 'bout the choices and the risks I didn't take

They want me in a box, they want me quiet, keep it tame

Label every thought and try to give my chaos name

But the pressure's building up, yeah, the silence gets so loud

Got to pack my bags and disappear inside the cloud

Yeah, I'm packing up my baggage, leaving gravity behind

Step outside the logic of an ordinary mind

Looking at the ceiling—wait, I promised not to say

Just looking at the limits, man, and tearing them away

They call it being crazy, yeah, they look at me and stare

I tell 'em that my home is way up high and I'm not there.

Chorus

Let the thoughts take the wheel, let 'em run wild

Lost inside a dream, acting like a child

Floating past the moon, higher than the scars

Carry me away, take me to the stars

Yeah, take me to the stars

'Cause I don't belong down here.

Verse 2

Gravity is heavy, but my fantasy is free

Nobody can cage the way the universe looks to me

Passing by the planets, leaving problems on the floor

Looking at the universe and kicking in the door

They think that I'm unstable because I refuse to walk

On the pavement that they paved with all the petty little talk

I'd rather be a lunatic who touches outer space

Than walk around the earth wearing a miserable face

Look at all the noise fading out into the night

Turning all the darkness into blinding yellow light

Rocket ship of consciousness, I'm punching through the blue

Showing you the places that they never wanted you to view.

Chorus

Let the thoughts take the wheel, let 'em run wild

Lost inside a dream, acting like a child

Floating past the moon, higher than the scars

Carry me away, take me to the stars

Yeah, take me to the stars

'Cause I don't belong down here.

Bridge

Far beyond the orbit where the oxygen runs thin

This is where the real life and the liberty begin

No one's keeping score, no one's telling me to stop

Looking at the world from the very, very top

Yeah, look at it vanish!

Every single doubt and every heavy piece of baggage

Disappearing in the dust, yeah, watch 'em fade away

I ain't coming back, I ain't coming back today!

Chorus

Let the thoughts take the wheel, let 'em run wild

Lost inside a dream, acting like a child

Floating past the moon, higher than the scars

Carry me away, take me to the stars

Yeah, take me to the stars

'Cause I don't belong down here.

Outro

Way beyond.

Lost in the dark, but it feels like home.

Just me and the cosmos.

Yeah.

I don't belong here.
