Chorus: Leave them bones in the desert kick the dirt from your shoes. It's time to stop lickin' your wounds. Who sowed all the seeds that fill you with doubt? it's time to start weeding them out. Be a light that shines on everything...

[Verse 1] Hurry on home, By way of the moon. To the expanse of space, in your wallpapered room. [Verse 2] Reclined in position. Everything's in place. Your shortwave radio, is dialed into space. [Chorus] Stars stuck to the ceiling. Glowing dimly in the dark. A phosphorescent face. The armchair Astronaut. [Verse 3] Now your eyes are seein’ stars in the static on the screen. With one eye on your telescope, The other in a dream. [Bridge] Would you leave behind the darkness? to watch the birds in flight? or remove your stellar suit? To feel the warmth of light. [Chorus] Stars stuck to the ceiling, Glowing dimly in the dark. In your sea of tranquility, The armchair Astronaut.
