Packing the last few shirts into a bloated suitcase Last glimpse of comfort and the ticking clock face I swear those hands move faster everyday I'm more confused than ever but I don't beg or pray 'Cause the sparkling light from the morning sun Is all we should need to feel one
I reach the station with just minutes to spare I glance at my watch, time's going faster these days, I swear Eyes focus up now to the train timetable board There's only two platforms to be explored And it's then that I admit it to myself That I'm lost, so lost, but you're the constellations that guide me
There's a train at twelve, destination "Disaster" It's running on time as time runs faster On platform two, it's destination "Sustainability" It's delayed, though, it was supposed to arrive at 11: 50 Platform one, it says "Stand behind the yellow line" (That I am lost, so lost) But I sit on the platform edge and just gaze at the time (But you're the constellations that guide me)
My mind wanders back to our oblivious existence I'm all choked up now with the threat of distance As the train bound for "Disaster" chokes up to the station I don't board it 'cause I decide that it's the wrong destination But the train bound for "Sustainability" is nowhere to be seen And I'm lost, so lost Where are the constellations that guide me?
And then I realize that We need to use our own two feet to walk these tracks And we have to squad up and we have to watch each other's backs With forgiveness as our torch and imagination our sword We'll untie the ropes of hate and slash open the minds of the bored And we'll start a world so equal and free Every inch of this Earth is yours, all the land and all the sea Imagine no restrictions, but the climate and the weather Then we can explore space Together! Forever!
(And I am lost, so lost, you are the constellations)
