Thought I Was A Spaceman

Thought I was a spaceman
Digging out my heart
In some distant sand dunes
In a car park

Cause the desert had encroached upon
The places where we lived
People like me fighting
To keep the demons in

But we never succeeded
We never succeeded
In fact we failed

Thought I was a spaceman
Digging out my heart
In some distant sand dunes
In a car park

By the empty harbor
Where the junk boats phantom flow
The fight for happy valley
Sadly, the line broke

Thought I found my black box
Washed upon the shore
On outlying islands
Past the land fall

Thought I thought I’d found it
But that was not true at all
I’d walked into a bar
Raised hell

Cut the chasm out me
Always and always the same
Put the ghost in writing
And let it be (you again)

Thought I was a spaceman
Digging out my heart
In some distant sand dune
In Hyde Park

Thought I was a spaceman
Digging up my heart
In some distant sand dune
Here again

Thought I was a spaceman
Digging up my heart
In some distant sand dune
Here again

Here again
Here again
