Let’s Stay on the Moon
[Verse 1]
So long, you bitter climes
We're better leaving you behind and flying in the night
And all the damage that we've done
Don't look so bad when we block out the sun, so why fight?

[Pre-Chorus]
And from the absence of sound
How can you pine for the clangor on the ground?
And no room to walk around

[Chorus]
Let's stay on the moon
Let's stay on the moon
Let's stay on the moon
And watch the earth go down
Watch the earth go down

[Verse 2]
Hats off if you survived 2125
Oh, try to thrive
We had a daughter and she died in 2129
And I'm barely alive

[Pre-Chorus 2]
But there's nothing left to fear
Leave all your pain down there and wait with me up here
Nobody's calling, dear
[Chorus]
So let's stay on the moon
Let's stay on the moon
Let's stay on the moon
And watch the earth go down
And watch the earth go down

[Bridge]
Everybody wants a thing
To put an end to suffering
Always trying to talk it through
But you hear me and I hear you

[Pre-Chorus 3]
And it's cold now at the core
So I'll take the warmth of just twenty minutes more
And you with me for it all

[Chorus]
Let's stay on the moon
Let's stay on the moon
Let's stay on the moon
And watch the earth go down
And watch the earth go down
And watch the earth go down
And watch the earth go down
