Lyrics

Verse 1:

A streak of light that burned the night
A ship was falling from the sky

The crash sent waves of noise and dust
Then stumbled out a traveler lost

The people near kept on their way
For this was all just commonplace

And he was left alone to think
What to do now he’d quit his dream

Verse 2:

Disoriented years went by
He didn’t leave he never tried

The people told him he was smart
To trace the trail they had marked

Why endure when you can settle
He tried to tell himself it's better

Ignore the tug of sky and stars
Look at the ground and don’t stray far

Chorus:

Earthlocked, how do you leave x2

Verse 3:

One day I met him, he let me know
That he had crashed here years ago

I asked him why he chose to stay
Replied it was the only way

The lost look hidden in his eye
Betrayed contentment was a lie

He lost composure said leave now
Before you too cannot get out

Chorus x2
