Departure

Outer space man
 What have you done to me?
 I was just broken
 But now there's sympathy
 I can't stay here and
 I'll miss this apathy
 But i can't turn my head
 You've shown me too much mercy
 You said "don't look down now
 'cause it's not there somehow
 When you're tripped and falling down
 Just forget to hit the ground
 Then float away."
 Outer space man
 How did you know me?
 Even i'd forgotten
 The man i meant to be
 But you had x-rays
 Or some kind of telepathy
 And though i strain to own it
 I want what you've given me
 You said "don't look down now
 'cause it's not there somehow
 When you're tripped and falling down
 Just forget to hit the ground
 Then float away."
 I'll stand up now
 And i'll leave here somehow
 You may hear me shouting
 That i'm done with doubting
 Yes, i believe you
 Now i know better
 Now i know better
 And i have found a way
 Outer space man
 Why did you come to me?
 Was i deserving
 Of so much sympathy?
 You said "don't look down now
 'cause it's not there somehow
 When you're tripped and falling down
 Just forget to hit the ground
 Then float away."
