fiogf49gjkf0d The Old Man outside the gates
Sings of cars and trucks
The Old Man
And how this house would shake when an airliner flew overhead
And how he’s hope and pray for one merciful face to give him some bread
Spacesuits are for Spacemen
Not for here on Earth
Spacesuits are for Spacemen
Oxygen depleted since birth
Too little was understood
Too little was done
Until the Cash Cow was sucked dry
We got pushed back into the darkness never to return
To those halcyon days of excess
Money to burn
I inhale my last free air as I exit these gates
And enter another hemisphere
An un-breathable space
Where the sun is now a distant glow far off in the haze
I keep a picture of my family and home when life meant something more than rage
Spacesuits are for Spacemen
Not for here on Earth
Spacesuits are for Spacemen
Oxygen depleted since birth
Now ridiculed and sanitized
A suffocated Earth
Spacesuits issued, homogenized
For those of chosen worth
With no place to hide and nowhere left to run
We’ve had to face the pain
Where the enemy looks a lot like you and me
With no aliens to blame
Spacesuits are for Spacemen
Not for here on Earth
Spacesuits are for Spacemen
Oxygen depleted since birth ( repeat )
Please replace
Please replace
Please
Please
The Old Man outside the gates
