Insectoid

From that point on, a lot of things were understood

From that point on, a lot of things were left on earth

From that point on, I saw the ground charred like wood

Through cosmos, our little rocket ship surfed

Left alone with myself on the turf

Left forgotten and abandoned like the search

All cause of some benign curse

As I come to, hearing my name, uttered and rehearsed

Solemn greeter, a cult leader, greets you

Black hooded reaches you, a banshee screech

The cult teacher's speech

Spaceship launched into the airy space

Containment breach and a twisted arms race

Come fly with me to the far beyond

They said strong before it all went wrong

Ship filled with radioactive waste pods

All communications severed, we're lost in space

Scribed on green paper infested

Our ship drifting along

Parasites infected

Unknown like the thing neglected

Admiral, I have a question rejected

Dark ambient pulsing ship

Cold as autumn or winter

Central subterfuge in the core splinters

Who comes hither

Spoken uncanny aboard a lost ship

Gun upon my hip

I shoot the kill, eject the dead

Body bag zip

Play the radio, sounds like static and rips

Ship cackling, signal just skipped

Ship somewhere in space

Location unknown

Shit

Somewhere between the sun and what is known

I sigh

At least I still have myself inside

All clean, no infections or parasites and self

Can't say the same for everyone else

Check star map, predictably offline

Of course it is, expect anything else

Why

Monitors gray scale, won't cry

Another detail

Sounds glitching

Our coffin hits with another nail

Grip gun tighter, ready to blast with hail sized bullets

Open fire

Aim at the door, auto opens a hell

Don't think I'll be getting home soon

Oh well

From that point on, a lot of things were understood

From that point on, a lot of things were left on earth

Through cosmos, our little rocket ship surfed

And communications were left unheard

Left alone with myself on the turf

Forgot and abandoned like the church

All cause of some benign curse

As I come to hearing my name uttered and rehearsed

I don't know

Maybe we weren't loud enough at the time

Or maybe they didn't notice

Because it said we showed signs, but maybe we were the only ones that noticed
