Drifting (The Prayer)

(When in motion, an object in space will continue moving forward until faced with an opposing force. But what could oppose an object drifting through uncharted territory?)

Out in space the pressure
Is enough to break
A different day
But I'm still the same one
From the waves
The one that went insane
Too far gone
Came back again
Showed you how to get out, baby
Now we drifting
Through the pain

We felt Alone
So we went and got
Faded Again
We love to Stand Apart
So you rode off on the Train
Call you Lady Macbeth
Queen of my disdain
Drowning up in my Reality
I ain't the same

I blasted off
And now im drifting up in space
I opened up my eyes, took a breath
And felt the blaze

I looked up ahead
Said a prayer
And dropped the waste
Then started floating up
Till I broke
Right through the waves

I blasted off
And now im drinking up in space
I opened up my eyes, took a breath
And felt the blaze

I looked up ahead
Said a prayer
And dropped the waste
Then started floating up
Till I broke
Right through the waves

(Drifting, our hero reminisces on his time under the surface. Sometimes, he looks back down to earth, nostalgic for his days of safety and comfort in the midst of the crashing waves)

It's so much winning going on
I can't even say it
So I'm just keeping with the motions
Still can't celebrate
The job ain't over yet
Solo or collaborate
It's still a long road up
To being a great

I'm running out of time
Don't wanna say that it's too late
But drifting up in space
One can only sit and wait
Waiting on a shooting star
Something to reveal my fate
Come and pull me further from the water
Towards the golden gates

I blasted off
And now im drifting up in space
I opened up my eyes, took a breath
And felt the blaze

I looked up ahead
Said a prayer
And dropped the waste
Then started floating up
Till I broke
Right through the waves

I blasted off
And now im drinking up in space
I opened up my eyes, took a breath
And felt the blaze

I looked up ahead
Said a prayer
And dropped the waste
Then started floating up
Till I broke
Right through the waves

(On his own, the hero looks down in the direction of Earth expectantly. Searching for a sign of life, with faith that the road he paved will lead others up, to drift among the stars.)
