Moonshot Lyrics

This is a moonshot

But I am not afraid

Only a moonshot

Gonna make it there one day

Taking a moonshot

So people, please be brave

On high alert

Ignite the earth

Defy the grave

Breaking away

Once more into the wilderness

We are going, we are going

Where the vacuum of the void

Can drag us far beyond the gloaming

It's heat death on reentry

If you make it back at all

But the weathervanes

Say I feel no pain

'Cause you got me in your thrall

One day I'm gonna reach you

One day our worlds collide

This is a moonshot

But I am not afraid

Only a moonshot

Gonna make it there one day

Taking a moonshot

And so we must be brave

On high alert

Ignite the earth

Defy the grave

Breaking away

Assembling every resource

Burning every drop of fuel

They say it's go-time anytime now

Friends, let's light this fucking fuse

You are ferocity relentless

And kinetic as a muse

I am velocity and I'm dead-set on

Making my way to you

One day I'm gonna reach you

One day our worlds will collide

Sometimes you cannot be afraid

To watch it all burn down

Just rip it up and start again

We're gonna run this program back again

Can you feel the surface shuddering?

Outside I can hear the world breathing

Thunder rolling out so deafening

Oh, how can I be cool

When all we have is heat?

Inside I can feel you melting me

I feel tranquility

When I'm with you

This puzzle's falling into place

And I don't need a reason why

We can solve all of the best parts

And throw away the sky

But why would we cut corners

When all we have is time?
