lyrics

1. They fastened tightly to a falling star
Descended like the shimmer on a steel guitar
Across the heavens to these fields of earth
To wake us up and show us what our world was worth

CH I watched them fall away

2. An epic trip across the black of space
To hold a magnifying mirror to our twisted face
Highlight the error of the path we chose
And try to change our tune before we decompose

3. So would we listen to the truth they spoke?
Or see their words as punchline to a cosmic joke?
More likely treat them with disdain and fear
And meme ‘n’ mock their message in the Twittersphere

CH / INST / CH

4. We scorned their warning, it was ‘too profound’
Our telescopes are always turned the wrong way round
They tried to show the needle dancing in the red
But we were busy staring at ourselves instead

CH
They faded into grey/just a shadow play/diminish and decay/Yeah they faded into grey/They faded into grey/They faded into grey/They faded into grey
