_stellar refugee_

i’m standing on the corner
twilight warning
it’s almost time to split
get outta this town
my feet off the ground
gotta jet before I get hit

it’s time to get away
there’s no way I can stay
so I’m headed to my favorite place
it’s cool and loud
and there’s a wicked crowd
that’s what you get in outer space

and I’m playing Halcyon + On + On
headed to the moon before nightfall’s gone
because in outer space there’s space enough for me
this is the life of a stellar refugee

i’m hunted by the law
wanted in the bars
but I’m out before they get in
‘cause in this life we live
you gotta take before you give
and baby it’s sink or swim

i’d like to see you try
when you look me in the eye
pull the trigger if you’ve got the nerve
but as soon as you miss
tou’re gonna taste Death’s kiss
which is no more than you deserve

[chorus]

you say it must be hard
in this world apart
with a cybernetic body and brain
that I’m a real head case
trapped in cyberspace
and that would simply make you go insane

with all the life I’ve lost
i’m adding up the cost
every hour of every day
but I can always get out
when I hear about
another chance to get away

[chorus]
