She sits heavy on the magnetic locks
Paint peeled back like old taxi tops
The bay is quiet pressure holding tight
No radio dispatch calls the night
Meter running in the vacuum cold
Rust eats the chrome on a frame so old
Silent hangar not a soul in sight
Just the hum of the reactor light
Solar wind don't blow like downtown rain
But it eats the hull just the same
I seen ships come I seen ships go
This old hauler moves too slow
Meter running in the vacuum cold
Rust eats the chrome on a frame so old
Silent hangar not a soul in sight
Just the hum of the reactor light
Stars look down like streetlamps on the curb
She don't move got no nerve to serve
Cargo bay is empty cold as stone
Flying solo dying all alone
Meter running in the vacuum cold
Rust eats the chrome on a frame so old
Silent hangar not a soul in sight
Just the hum of the reactor light
Engine block is frozen seized up tight
Never gonna see the morning light
Keep the change the trip is paid in full
Parked forever in the orbital hull
Meter running in the vacuum cold
Rust eats the chrome on a frame so old
Silent hangar not a soul in sight
Just the hum of the reactor light
Meter running in the vacuum cold
Rust eats the chrome on a frame so old
Meter stopped the vacuum wins
Dust settles on the fins
