about

first finished song of the album (i'll probably re-record the drums later). it uses space travel as a metaphor for life after high school.

lyrics

weightlessness
a synthetic kind of mess
all of this distress
all this loneliness
blatancy
just you wait and see
all of this will end
all of this soon will end

i've convinced myself
that this would always last
but now i'm drifting so far
i can't see what has passed
there's a fire in me
growing up could never quench
there's a weight upon my shoulders
and i'll float here 'til it's over then.

curtain call
what goes up will fall
jumping out of chairs
we will meet you there
let out a yell
then best friends turn to pen pals
all of this will end
this shit will be the end of me

i've convinced myself
that this would never end
but now i'm drifting so far
i see the earth's bend
there's a fire in me
growing up could never quench
there's a weight upon my shoulders
and i'll float here 'til it's over
