lyrics

The old street looks much better now,
the world out there is calling a little less,
and nostalgic eyes have been known to be harder to impress.
Whatever was so green about that distant grass
is anybody's guess.

Yesterday's adventure is
today's axiomatic comfort zone,
and the thought of tomorrow's mistral chills us to the bone,
and we're so far away, so far away from home
and incurably alone.

Chorus:
On a rocket that's slowly losing speed,
starting to contemplate the ejector seat.
I always felt that looking back was equal to defeatm
but as I'm winding down, the impulse spells "r e t r e a t".

Bridge:
Memories are treasures no one can keep.
Echoes and bridges, compasses and beacons
disintegrate into eternal sleep,
leaving us lost, uprooted, and weakened here and now
with no anchor in the storm.
Without a blanket to keep us warm.
And no wisdom to inform us...

Chorus:

Hands off the ejector seat!
Don't retreat!
