the man who flew into space

Tempting your toes from the chair Dragging your heels through the air Counting your heartbeats, now your breath turns cold Haven't seen daylight in weeks Wiping the dust from your cheeks Note on the dresser says; "I told you so" But where does time go? Laid to rest, you know what's next Strangers knocking down the door Looks of terror Jaded eyes fixed to the floor "Pray he's better off where he has gone" They say; "It's sad to throw a life away To find forevermore" You fell through a crack in the sky Saw death in the blink of an eye Moments like this you wish you'd changed your mind 'Cause all that you have and you know You gave as a gift to let go People and pleasures that you left behind But there's no right time Lost in space, you leave no trace Strangers knocking down the door Looks of terror Jaded eyes fixed to the floor "Pray he's better off where he has gone" They say; "It's sad to throw a life away To find forevermore" Stuck behind through the glass that you're looking through Can't see a better end to the day 'Cause you don't even know who you're talking to And lately, you've got nothing to say Maybe it's all that we're good for And maybe we're a waste of time If you can't fight it anymore I'll see you on the other side Strangers knocking down the door Looks of terror Jaded eyes fixed to the floor "Pray he's better off where he has gone" They say; "It's sad to throw a life away To find forevermore"
