Red Planet

It's been almost 20 years on the red planet
A place where there are no tears, it is just water floating
No, they're not quite emoting.

I dream of the other days, of the times I held you
Left in an autumn blaze, now I idle in bubbles
Just collecting the rumble.

Well I waited for you out here, but that was just delusional
And I painted all these pictures of earth but that's unusual
Unusual to you.

Met at a seminar, shared the same table
Brushed by you at the bar, didn't match your discretion
Soon became my prescription.

I think of the junipers in the spring growing
Fall up on Jupiter, it doesn't draw a reaction
Temporary distraction.

And I've waited for you out here, but that may be delusional
And I painted all these pictures of earth but that's unusual
Unusual to you.

Unusual, unusual, unusual to you.

And I waited for forever, and that was just delusional
So I painted all these pictures of earth but that's unusual
Unusual, unusual, unusual to you.
