Track Insight / Lyrics
Faded keys of winterblue atop control panel
Echoes of home, drifting like solar flares
Stars wheeling through portholes, galaxies unseen
In the stillness, a side of me begins
Creak, squeak, an old wooden rocker
Propelling me back through memories and to the core
Of who I was on Earth, arms wrapped around
Mama's legs, the ground beneath me solid and firm, no void
Stuck in orbit, drifting away
From the world and its warmth, from the light of day
My heart in my mouth, lost in the vastness of space
But this rusting chair, it holds me in place
Spare the engine hum, a lullaby
A hint of perfume, jasmine green tea, memories rush by
Next to the autodoc, a folded quilt
Mom's and Dad's love kept me safe through countless flights
Creak, squeak, an old wooden rocker
Propelling me back through memories and to the core
Of who I was on Earth, arms wrapped around
Mama's legs, the ground beneath me solid and firm, no void
Stuck in orbit, drifting away
From the world and its warmth, from the light of day
My heart in my mouth, lost in the vastness of space
But this rusting chair, it holds me in place
Worn armrests dig, reminders of time's toll
The chair my parent's greatest pride, this seat once theirs too
As I sit here, I feel weightlessness wash over me
Free from responsibilities, grief, and history
In this moment, starlight gazing, drifting alone
The cosmos and I, we've come to an understanding
About the endless expanse stretching out before
A vast untamed frontier to explore, my future to shore
Stuck in orbit, drifting away
Yet still somehow rooted, not lost, not astray
My heart soaring, yearning, reaching for escape
But this rusting chair, it keeps me in place
So here I'll remain, rocking gently
A lonely soul among stars, but never alone
My heart beats to the rhythm of the chair's creak
In this timeless orbit, my story will speak.
