off course, I should have seen the asteroid
I crash landed with no fuel to spare
Shipwrecked, no hope of retrieval
I huddle in my bubble of air

my footprints will never be discovered
I walk alone down here
there will be no salvaging this mission I fear

radio silence can start to be comforting
abandoned to my own devices
hydrated breakfast and recycled crosswords
survival no longer suffices

my retorts go unappreciated
my passion dies of thirst
prisoner in my own personal universe

on the
LOST PLANET, stranded on the
LOST PLANET, can’t get off the
LOST PLANET, flaking on the
LOST PLANET, breaking on the
Lost planet...
Lost planet...

build a rocket launch me into space
but I can’t see my way out of this place
so I’ll just shine my flashight into the night
and watch it fade away

spacesuit is faded and threadbare
I calmly embrace my demise
strangers playing chase in the sky
keep my vigil with twinkling eyes

lock the doors and kill the homing beacon
as the rescue ships descend
one rock is as lonely as another in the end

on the
LOST PLANET, stranded on the
LOST PLANET, can’t get off the
LOST PLANET, flaking on the
LOST PLANET, breaking on the
Lost planet...
Lost planet...
