Rivers of Nihil
The Sub-Orbital Blues

Can you see it?
Believe me that
Our dreams will orbit the Earth forever

My heroes left me here in 1917, I fear
To ponder and perform
The religion of dogs of war
But I can only lift that cup
Long enough to fill my mouth
We'll suffer and scorn
Another 800 billion suckers born
And it ain't lost on me (See it)
That code is all I'm gonna be (Believe it)
But our dreams will orbit the Earth forever!

Oh yeah, I got 'em bad
Got them sub-orbital blues, baby

Existence is, oh, so temporary
(I've got my feet on thе ground)
We've all been waiting
(Waiting to escapе this world)
This obsession
Digitize perceptions
Save us (Save us)
We live forever (Save me from the hole in the ground)
But now I'm light as a feather
Just ones 'n' zeros
Is this heaven?
I don't feel
I don't think
Just want St. Peter to let me in

Because my sea is a black sea
And the air
The air is trying to kill me (Kill me)
Oh, God, save me

Now they're dragging out the bodies
To dig their holes in the ground again
Throw your children to the sky
See the widowed mothers crying again
Tell me what will you do? (What will you do?)
Yeah, have you heard the news?
I don't think we're gonna make it
(What will you do?)
'Cause the government is coming for you

Can you see it?
Believe me that
(Launch me into orbit)
Our dreams will orbit the Earth forever
The dead they speak to me
Told me you can't break free
But they don't see what I've seen
So I tell them how it's gonna be

Can you see it?
Believe me that
That our dreams will orbit the Earth forever
See it (Tell me, can you see it?)
Believe me that (I don't believe it)
Our dreams will orbit the Earth forever!
