lyrics

Sighting:
The stars are currently much more unearthly.
Last stop on the journey,
Last body on a gurney

Back home.
Black ghost.

He told me
Through a cigarette smoked slowly,
"Seek your sighting in the gold sea.
A fifth of Agwa and peyote

At most."
Black ghost.

They found me
An ephemeral flash of ball lightening,
Approaching Mars has its scope on me.
I dig a hole to hide it's
Too deep.

Black hole.
Black ghost.

A womb-like warmth welcomes me into the unknown.
I scream, "Take me, take me! This is not my home!"

Well, how was I to know?
Life in a vacuum,
I've never felt more alone.

Black ghost.
