I lay afloat
In abysmal space
floatin', floatin'
just floatin' on by.

Lie awake at
the glowing red
controls because
there's no use sleeping.

[come in...repeat...]

My head's pounding
from staring into
deep places i have
not fathomed before,

and from the glow-
ing red light in
my cockpit; it
reaches deep within

past my eyeballs and
into my brain
there's no use
in sleeping at all

[are you... answ...]

cause I'm already...

[...answ...us]

unknown spheres and
stars pass my view
just outside my
window; they're mocking

me; illusions
of faces surface
laughing, grinning;
and my head still pounds

My head still pounds
and pounds and throbs
incessantly so.

[come in, i...eat...s miss...trol...]

And I float on
adrift, I sigh
and try to mouth
what i've concluded

That I'm already...

[are y...]

floatin adrift
In abyssal space
floating floating
floating on and on...

deep in this space
Just floating on ...


[... ...]

It's supposed to be a sci fi narrative. I was trying to create a mood similar to Space Caravan by Black Sabbath, at least a mood similar to the tune of the song. A bit melancholy.
