Orbital Descent
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Exit wormhole
Approach vectors dangerous
Disorient the mind
Lost vision in the turbulence
Thought we'd collapse at this speed
Incalculable G's
Stabilize
I didn't come this whole way to die
Though we seem destined to fry
A rock on the horizon
A garden world flourishing
Growing like a seed
Glued to my seat
The straps become a part of me
Indistinguishable seams
Rectify the topspin
The horizon's growing
It's colors bleed into a mosaic of fire
A chemical reaction, ship becoming one with the sky
A single focal point that we live, where our impact is imminent
A certain date with decimation
Fate wrestled out of our hands
Both of us braced, strapped into place
The captain's chair compressed to my skin
Though we move at different speeds
Every man hurtles through space
Though few experience infinity
Our shields were never built for climates like these
Kerosene
It's the desire to live that burns me alive
