Laika

They say the truths your best defence
I'm bleeding just to pay the rent
And broken dreams mean nothing
When you need something
Just to get you through the year

And now we are moving out
So pack your clothes your books your doubt
And bring the piece of paper

That I gave you back when you were all alone

Letters sent home with no return address

I ve got a bag full of old clothes
I ve got a bag full of stress

I am so sorry that I am leaving

You so little to believe in

Cause we had a house

With a perfect door and a front room
With the right decor
And I came and wrecked it all

I came and wrecked it all like I always do

Cause I didn t think and I poured your life down the kitchen sink

With the dregs of yesterday

And now I am going to be late
I am sorry

I am so sorry that I am leaving

You so little to believe in
Just tell me that you are free of your woes and of me

There weather more reliable than me

I am calling base command as the last bit of oxygen runs out but
They re down there softly sleeping
The sun sets over the pacific region

I am sitting here hanging in the balance
Just barely in the atmosphere

I am sitting here hanging in the balance
Just barely in the atmosphere

I am so sorry that I am leaving

You so little to believe in
Just tell me that you re free of your woes and of me

There weather more reliable than me

As lonely as laika
Up there all alone
You miss the atmosphere

The stars are now your home
