Track Insight / Lyrics
You wake up in a metal shell
A rusted tin, a desert hell
The coffee's cold, the air is thin
The orbital fire begins to spin
You watch the red sand hit the glass
Waiting for the heat to pass
Your beacon blinks a steady beat
While you shiver in the desert heat
Hold on to the red dust pulse
Until the heavy static melts
Keep the signal cutting clear
I am coming, I am near
The sky is torn by silver streaks
The metal hull of the pod leaks
You count the seconds, one by one
Underneath a dying sun
Hold on to the red dust pulse
Until the heavy static melts
Keep the signal cutting clear
I am coming, I am near
The radar screen is humming low
Nowhere left for you to go
Just a spark in a sea of rust
A lonely heart in a cloud of dust
You find a joke to tell the void
While the outer rim is destroyed
The grill is cold, the plates are dry
You stare up at a bleeding sky
Your fingers shake on the dial knob
Your heavy chest begins to throb
The beacon screams a final plea
To bring you home and set you free
Hold on to the red dust pulse
Until the heavy static melts
Keep the signal cutting clear
I am coming, I am near
Signal locked.
I see you now.
Red light.
