The earth gets smaller with everything I see
A technicolor picture on a black and white screen
There's a blackout on the ground
But an energy above the trees
Just past the edge of sound
So climb the ladder with me

Wanderer
Survey the shrinking globe
All your troubles seem smaller
The farther you go
Wanderer
Never coming home
All your troubles seem smaller
The farther you go

Shed the dead weight
Flight will follow
From the island that the world will surely swallow
Shed the dead weight
Flight will follow
From the island that the world will surely swallow

Falling out of orbit
My thoughts scrambled and distorted
Sailing through space in a panic
To escape the static
Escape the static

Wanderer
Survey the shrinking globe
All your troubles seem smaller
The farther you go
Wanderer
Never coming home
All your troubles seem smaller
The farther you go

How clear is the air up there
Breathe easy
Breathe easy as you leave the atmosphere
Breathe easy
How clear is the air up there
Breathe easy
Breathe easy as you leave the atmosphere
Breathe easy
Breathe easy
Breathe easy
