up up and away 
up up and away 
away from this town (x3) 
these tunnels of bone 
these tunnels of gold 
they lead me 
 
i am a rocket  
i am a rocket 
you are an anchor, down. 
 
out of my way 
out of my way 
you are my heart 
i am the voice inside your heart 
 
i know your mouth  
you know my wounds 
these warrens are dark  
these warrens are long 
these warrens go on and on and on and on 
 
and so we go on 
and so we go on 
up up and away 
up up and away  
away from this town (x3) 
 
i am a rocket  
i am a rocket 
you are an anchor 
you are an anchor, down (x3) 
 
and had we arrived 
and if we had arrived  
Then we would have  
that there was no home (x3) 
to go to 
 
and so we sit here 
in the heat of the sun 
the heat of the sun (x5) 
and so we sit here 
the heat of the sun (x2) 
we opened our skulls 
all out to the sky (x8) 
let the light fall (x6) 
let the light light fall
