Red Planet -

It’s been almost twenty years on the red planet

​A place where there are no tears, it is just water floating

​No, they’re not quite emoting

​I dream of the other days, of the times I held you

​Left in an autumn blaze, now I idle in bubbles

​Just collecting the rubble

​Well I waited for you out here, but that was just delusional

​And I’ve painted all these pictures of Earth, but that’s unusual

​Unusual to you

​Met at a seminar, shared the same table

​Brushed by you at the bar, didn’t match your description

​It soon became my prescription

​I think of the junipers in the spring growing

​Fall up on Jupiter, it doesn’t draw a reaction

​Temporary distraction

And I’ve waited for you out here, but that may be delusional

And I’ve painted all these pictures of Earth, but that’s unusual

Unusual to you

​​Unusual, unusual, unusual to you​

And I waited for forever, and that was just delusional

So I’ve painted all these pictures of Earth, but that’s unusual

Unusual, unusual, unusual to you
