For Music Lyrics

When I was thirteen I went to outer space

I saw twenty-one astronauts singing in a lighthouse

Like cosmic angels in some hyper-lightspeed race

Silhouetted by the sun I could hear them shout

Are you ok, we know it's cold out here in space

But dying now would be such a waste

We got you friend, just grit your teeth

And sing a song till you're out of breath

And scream and dance like you're not afraid of death

When I was sixteen I stared down a train

I gripped my fists and I screamed and it screamed back at me

I closed my eyes so I could walk away alive

I guess I still have screaming left to do

The night I walked the line I stared up at the moon

And realized I could see that lighthouse too

The radio in my car flashed on David Bowie's Starman

Tears escaped my eyes as I blinked up at the moon

And we'll sing songs in the dark

Keep tempo with the drums in our hearts

One day this song is gonna end

And we'll take that final breath

But for now just dance like we're not afraid of death

When I turn eighteen I'll have to join the rest of the world

And I honestly don't know if I'm going to survive

But for a moment, I can sing like this is gonna last forever

So to the moon

For music

One more time

Oh we'll sing songs in the dark

Keep tempo with the drums in our hearts

One day this song is gonna end

And we'll take that final breath

But for now, please God don't let it happen yet

One more time again and

We'll sing songs in the dark

And scream at the starry sky

Keep tempo with the drums in our hearts

Beat on like we'll never die

And I know that this song will have to end and say goodbye

But for now just dance like we're never gonna die

For now just sing like we'll never close our eyes

Cause right now

I'm not afraid

To die
