about

A story that goes like this: I had an existential crisis about Jeff Bezos going to space, which I got myself out of by watching Star Trek and practising a little radical dreaming.

lyrics

Chorus:
It’s getting dark
And I think we’re running out of luck
Man, we’ve really gone and run a muck
It’s getting dark
And I think we’re running out of luck
I am really starting to feel stuck

V1:
Billionaire bitches blasting off to the ionosphere
Just for the perspective, just to take a picture crystal clear
Down and in the dirt the only place that we can be is here
I would rather save this rock than rocket off her out of fear
Analysis getting so small, we’re talking quarks now
Zooming in so close that there is no room for your fucks, ow
I can’t keep this up
Plastic figurines, and neon dust
Nihilistic processing
Lawless
Lacking
Loveless
Lust

Chorus:
It’s getting dark
And I think we’re running out of luck
Man, we’ve really gone and run a muck
It’s getting dark
And I think we’re running out of luck
I am really starting to feel stuck
It’s getting dark
And I think we’re running out of luck
Man, we’ve really gone and run a muck
It’s getting dark
And I think we’re running out of luck
I am really starting to feel stuck

Breakdown:
It’s getting dark (yeah, yeah)
It’s getting dark (yeah, yeah)
It’s getting dark (yeah, yeah)
It’s getting dark (yeah, yeah)

People are no longer obsessed with the accumulation of things.”

We’ve grown out of our infancy.”

Outro:
Dust floating by on a cosmic wind
Hoping that I can land on a whim
Dust floating by on a cosmic wind
Hoping that I can land on a whim
