LYRICS: They say that every day, the universe expands and we discover certain things that we don't understand. Dark matter ain't the only mystery at hand. I'm wond'rin' how I got a girl like you to say that I'm her man.
It's a statistical anomaly, but girl, you've got me. Gravity is pulling me to your heavenly body. No astronomical phenomenon could ever stop me. You've got a smile that every star in the galaxy copied.
The constellations couldn't make as beautiful a pattern. The conversations—every night, I ring you up like Saturn. The telescopes tell us folks that you're the coolest view. A supernova's scootin' over to make room for you
'cause you eclipse every wonder of the cosmos. It's almost unfair to them, but you're the one I want most. It's a miracle that Galileo never found you. If he did, he'd say the universe revolved around you.

LYRICS: I know I'm not supposed to say the words They tell me that I have to let it eat me up inside But I just wanna feel the fire, girl I gotta know there's more to me than what I can provide
I'm your man But, baby, I'm a human too Not much different from you
Tell me I'm pretty Tell me you want me like I'm wanting you 'Cause when you are with me Lately there's been quite the chill in our room Tell me I catch your eye Make you swoon, make you sigh If you have to, just lie
What the hell am I supposed to do? You kiss me and I know to you it feels just like a chore Girl, I pick myself apart for you So maybe I can find a way for you to want me more
I don't know Why you don't look at me the same I'm breaking down from the pain
Tell me I'm pretty Tell me you want me like I'm wanting you 'Cause when you are with me Lately there's been quite the chill in our room Tell me I catch your eye Make you swoon, make you sigh If you have to, just lie
So, here I stand With my heart in my hand Now, make me feel like I'm a man
And tell me I'm pretty Tell me you want me like I'm wanting you 'Cause when you are with me Lately there's been quite the chill in our room Tell me I catch your eye Make you swoon, make you sigh If you have to, just lieBrain Stew with an original rap verseGoing Spaceward2022-05-17 | Stream my music, would you? https://open.spotify.com/artist/7rxWY... https://music.apple.com/us/artist/goi...
LYRICS: The stuff I spit is too expensive, no you can't afford it I birthed you nerdy TikTok rappers, wish you'd been aborted The organs pouring on the floor, I wash my hands, it's sorted I done forgot your names, bring me someone more important
Here's my declaration This truth should be self-evident You lack the constitution for rapping, you out your element You say you get the women, you say you get the Benjamins But, frankly, in your bedroom ain't no bed frame and you celibate
LYRICS: I couldn't find a rhyme for your name So I can't write a song About the way you came along And made me pick up every shred of blame I'm tired of the drama I'd stay, but I don't wanna
If your name were Mia Then I'd be singing "see ya" And if your name were Jenna I'd be out of this dilemma And if you were Michelle, I could tell you "go to hell" But I couldn't find a rhyme for your name
A rose by any name would smell as sweet But everything is sour When I'm with you for an hour I tried to put these feelings to a beat I'd love for you to hear it But I don't have the lyrics
If your name were Rachel Then I'd say something hateful And if your name were Maisie I could say you drive me crazy If your name were Eve I would tell you you should leave But I couldn't find a rhyme I can't write a single line Until I find a rhyme for your name
One day, I'll be finished with this song I hope that when you listen You're with somebody different Then once you've been together nice and long He gets his act together And finds somebody better
If your name were Katie Then I'd write something shady And if your name were Autumn Then I wouldn't have this problem If your name were Jane I could say that you're insaneDJ Got Us Fallin in Love but its, like, kinda emoGoing Spaceward2022-02-04 | I don't know what compelled me to make this.

LYRICS: 2007 seems a lot more far away Whatever happened to the songs we used to play? I used to listen to the same ones every day And now my iPod is dead
I work so much I'm gonna fall out, boy, it's rough I always wonder if my good is good enough I try my hardest to be disciplined and tough Can I just lie in my bed?
Everything's faster now Please help, I don't know how To keep up with the race I should be running I'd laugh, but it's not funny
I'm not teenaged anymore But I still mess up, and I'm insecure I thought I would have grown by now But I still sleep in and play music loud I'm not ready for responsibility I never learned to count past 23
Someone from school just won a Grammy, hip hooray I know another who's a doctor in LA One has a baby with another on the way Should I be seeing a shrink?
The prim and proper song and dance just isn't me 'Cause all this business has me steeped in misery I'm still the kid who bought an All Time Low CD But I can legally drink
Everything's faster now Please help, I don't know how To keep up with the race I should be running I need to make more money
I'm not teenaged anymore But I still mess up, and I'm insecure I thought I would have grown by now But I still sleep in and play music loud I'm not ready Man, I don't know anything I never learned to count past 23
24 is only one away from 25 25 is close to 30 if I'm still alive 30's ten away from 40, where'd the decade go? Ten more years and I'll be 50, time is running low Add 14, will you still need me when I'm 64? It's all too much, and I don't wanna do this anymore
I'm not teenaged anymore But I still mess up, and I'm insecure I thought I would have grown by now But I still sleep in and play music loud I'm not ready, I don't think I'll ever be I never learned to count past 23

There it is again That funny feeling That funny feeling
There it is again That funny feeling That funny feeling
The surgeon general's pop-up shop Robert Iger's face Discount Etsy agitprop Bugle's take on race Female Colonel Sanders Easy answers, civil war The whole world at your fingertips The ocean at your door The live-action Lion King The Pepsi halftime show Twenty thousand years of this Seven more to go Carpool Karaoke Steve Aoki, Logan Paul A gift shop at the gun range A mass shooting at the mall

Reading Pornhub's terms of service Going for a drive And obeying all the traffic laws in Grand Theft Auto V Full agoraphobic Losing focus, cover blown A book on getting better Hand-delivered by a drone Total disassociation Fully out your mind Googling "derealisation" Hating what you find That unapparent summer air in early fall The quiet comprehending of the ending of it all

LYRICS: Maybe you're crazy for trying How could you dare attempt flying? There's no one who can stop you now The question isn't if but rather how
Isn't there pride in ambition? Having a goal and a mission? Who knows what I've yet to be If they can do it, you think "Why not me?"
We try to fly It turns to a crawl Once we find out we're not special at all Feathers and wax The wings come undone "Get back to work, kid, there's no time for fun" You're too close to the sun
Put all your eggs in one basket Dig your own grave, build your casket You settle into some routine And take a match to every dream you have
All of the effort you're giving You are alive but not living You had a chance to make your play But now you're caught up in the day by day
So, we fly low, it's safe by the shore But something inside is still hungry for more The wings become stiff You need to be free You say, "This life is too simple for me" You're too close to the seaGoing Spaceward - Stories (Official Audio)Going Spaceward2020-12-08 | "Stories", track 6 from Songs to Exist To, available now on all streaming platforms.
LYRICS: Lately, I've been watching shows to clear my head Thinking back to movies that I've watched and stories that I've read And when I see that picture-perfect couple on the screen I can't help but think, "That should be you and me"
'Cause check it I want you with me when the credits roll, fade to black All the pieces in the score and you're my favorite track You're the perfect line of dialogue, you're the killer shot, you're the whole entire plot Whatcha say to that?
I won't let you be the one that got away Audrey Hepburn, I can take you on a Roman holiday Tell me what you want and I'll accommodate, I know we can make it Like Sally in that diner, you won't never have to fake it
If you lie back and pose, we could be Jack and Rose And I could etch a little sketch and show your lack of clothes After that, we can go to town The ship won't be the only thing that's going down
Oh, I'm falling for you Like the boys in stories all do I hope one day you You will be falling for me too
I need that Sam and Diane, that Kevin and Winnie I need that Cory and Topanga, that Lucy and Ricky Maybe I don't have a shot, but I've been known to beat odds I'd launch a thousand ships for you, I swear before the Greek gods
See, if you died young, I would travel down to Hades I'd find the god of death and tell him, "Hey, you've got my lady" And spit a verse or two to make him whimper like a baby So he can let us bounce and we can live until we're eighty
I'm here to spit my conviction, 'cause what's the issue with wishing That I could have the kind of love that is depicted in fiction? Please don't laugh if this verse is wack You got me feeling like I'm Cyrano de Bergerac
Tryna find the right words I stammer like an amateur as you recite your lines in perfect iambic pentameter Think of all that we could be if you would put that dude aside Romeo and Juliet without the suicide
Oh, I'm falling for you Like the boys in stories all do I hope one day you You will be falling for...

LYRICS: You and me, we used to be real tight But something happened, and we're not alright There's tension It's not the same connection I'm spending every single night alone And you don't even try to call my phone I wonder Why I keep your number I've tried and tried and tried to leave this hell You pull me back, it's like you cast a spell It's tragic The way you work your magic
Every time I get my wits And think that I should call it quits I miss the way you say my name And then I'm back inside your game like...
You don't know the things you do to me I hope soon you'll see you make me feel so down Like I'm underground I'm screaming, "Mercy, please! No more!" I'm not sure that you can even hear a sound 'Cause I'm underground
I'm analyzing every word you say That little joke you made the other day You hurt me I see you're playing dirty I'm falling deeper down the rabbit hole You're in the sun, I'm in the dark and cold I stay blue It's like I love and hate you The bittersweet, it lingers on my tongue I'm in my feelings while you look down from Your tower No one should have this power
Every time I get my wits And think that I should call it quits I miss the way you say my name And then I'm back inside your game like...
You don't know the things you do to me I hope soon you'll see you make me feel so down Like I'm underground I'm screaming, "Mercy, please! No more!" I'm not sure that you can even hear a sound 'Cause I'm underground
The way you changed up is really foul, no free throw 'Cause when I needed you by my side You flew away like it was Heathrow I need a power-up, that extra life or that cheat code You and me know that being with you is about as hard as this beat goes Look, here's the part where I rap with a triplet flow Gave you love and it wasn't reciprocal But when I try to say "this is it" and go I come back, it's so viciously cyclical That's just the cards we're dealt, the dice we roll, the coin we toss They say that love's a game I'm guessing you're the final boss
You don't know the things you do to me I hope soon you'll see you make me feel so down Like I'm underground I'm screaming, "Mercy, please! No more!" I'm not sure that you can even hear a sound 'Cause I'm undergroundGoing Spaceward - Natural Disaster (Official Audio)Going Spaceward2020-12-08 | "Natural Disaster", track 4 from Songs to Exist To, available now on all streaming platforms.
LYRICS: You're the patron saint of raining on parades, honey You don't even have to try. You just do That's just the way it is. Don't think I'm pointing blame, honey 'Cause it sucks as much for me as it does for you And all the other cities you’ve rolled through Since I'm not what you're after I'm just another victim of your natural disaster
Mother Nature gave you powers that you hate, honey But I would kill to do the damage you can do You've got a million different options on your plate, honey And what it takes to make somebody go and sing the blues If I could just be in your shoes Since I'm not what you're after I'm just another victim of your natural disaster
Now, he's another sucker with a story like mine In need of FEMA relief But I'm the one who's gotta hold this hurricane tight Even though it gives me so much grief
I know all of this is driving you insane, honey I'm well aware that you're alone and need a friend, but I won't apologize for drowning in your rain, honey So, tell me what we're gonna do 'cause I'm at my wit's end Maybe we could just pretend And cover up with laughter The fact that you're a victim of my natural disaster I'm just another victim of your natural disasterGoing Spaceward - In Your Head (Official Audio)Going Spaceward2020-12-08 | "In Your Head", track 3 from Songs to Exist To, available now on all streaming platforms.
LYRICS: Let’s see if I can find the perfect way to say this I see your face and I forget what my own name is Call me slick or sentimental But I think we’ve got some potential Oh oh oh Oh oh oh
I look around and I hear symphonies and classics They’re more your jam, I have to wonder where do I fit? Do I stack up when you compare me? The thought alone’s enough to scare me Oh oh oh Oh oh oh
I want to be in your head The lullaby you hum before you hit the bed The melody you just can’t seem to shake In the morning when you wake I’d be the first thing on your mind I’d go something like
Let’s see if I can find the perfect way to say this I wanna be the song that stands out on your playlist DJ, put me on rotation I’ll pray that you won’t change the station Oh oh oh Oh oh oh
Look, I’m just keeping it real I wish I had that Top 40 universal appeal I feel like I’m that song you'd only listen to ironically A novelty or comedy, but honestly, I wanna be An MJ’s Thriller, a beat by Dilla, or 16 bars by Ghostface Killa Oh oh oh Oh oh oh
I want to be in your head The lullaby you hum before you hit the bed The melody you just can’t seem to shake In the morning when you wake I’d be the first thing on your mind
They say you should always be yourself And that would be the best thing for my health But I’d change up my style and melody If it meant that you would sing with me
They say you should always be yourself And that would be the best thing for my health But I’d change up my style and melody If it meant that you would sing with me
I want to be in your head The lullaby you hum before you hit the bed The melody you just can’t seem to shake In the morning when you wake I’d be the first thing on your mind I’d go something like

LYRICS: When you turned seventeen You said you'd follow your dream And be an artist You've found a comfortable niche And though you're quite far from rich Your life has started Things are starting to click Then you get very sick The doc says cancer Your passion barely pays bills And you can't pay for the pills Who has the answer?
Every hour of every day Is so filled with these Possibilities In this life any choice you make Can go up in flames Can I win this game?
Am I doing it right Doing it right? I gotta put up a fight Doing it right Can I buckle down and save my world tonight? Am I doing it right?
This girl is out of your league But when you got on one knee She said, "Let's do it" You've got a mess of a life But now your best friend's your wife You might get through it Months all fade into years Then one day she's in tears She says she's done pretending She's gone and found someone new He's ten times better than you There goes your happy ending
Every hour of every day We all flirt with these These uncertainties In this life any choice you make Can go up in smoke Is this some kind of joke?
Am I doing it right Doing it right? I gotta put up a fight Doing it right Can I buckle down and save my world tonight?
Half of the time You feel you're out of your mind You've got no clue where to look There's no instructional book You just stumble along And maybe mumble a song That you make up as you go Because you just never know
You never know if they hate or if they like you You never know if a move is the right move You never know about the world, what it might do 'Cause sometimes, everything is going nice, and then, Like the best-laid plans of mice and men, It all blows up once and twice again And every little decision that sounded great at the time Has got you trapped in a cage of your own design I feel like I'm a mix of Icarus and Sisyphus I'm standing on the edge of this precipice and the question is
Am I doing it right? Am I doing it right? Doing it right
Am I doing it right? Am I doing it right? When the story ends will I say it was nice? Am I doing it right?Going Spaceward - A Song to Exist To (Official Audio)Going Spaceward2020-12-08 | "A Song to Exist To", track 1 from Songs to Exist To, available now on all streaming platforms.
LYRICS: I spend every day in fear That I'll waste away my years All my peers begin careers And I just write these stupid songs
Am I staying in one place 'Cause my head is up in space? I try to face this life with grace But I'm afraid of being wrong
A hundred paths to choose But I'm scared of what I'll lose When I don't go down the other ninety-nine
And they say jealousy is madness And the fastest path to sadness Is comparing someone else's life to mineI wrote this song after watching too many movies.Going Spaceward2020-12-02 | This is a stripped version of my song "Stories" off my new album Songs to Exist To, which is available now.

LYRICS: I am at the 23rd Street Chipotle, and there's someone that I'd like you to meet. He's wearing armor, he’s warm to the touch, and he stands nine, maybe ten feet. I that he's remarkable.
I came upon him walking home from a job that I thought would be a lot more fun. Sixteen hours pushing pixels on screens, and I barely get a "job well done". I know that I'm remarkable.
Now, I don't know who made him, but I know a thing or two about wanting some acknowledgment when I've made something new.
I know the feeling when a creation you adore and the blood and sweat you poured go unnoticed and ignored. And you think, "Is there anyone out there Anyone watching what I do? Does someone have a clue? Oh, if someone only knew."
I've been living in New York for a while, and there's something that I'm figuring out: You can say "You don't see that every day" every day in this beautiful town. It's all just so remarkable.
Things like this, they come along and they blow us all away, then before you can blink, everybody's moving on to the next new perfect and remarkable thing.
It's easy to feel jaded, and it's easy to feel numb. There's a million awesome things, so what's a million and one?
But, take a moment. Look at what people can create. Something different, something great. Can we just appreciate?
Is there anyone out there? Anyone watching what we do? Does someone have a clue? Oh, if someone only knew.
That people are remarkable. We reach into the dark and pull the greatest piece of art that you'll ever see.
Look at the function. Look at the form. Look at the way that he strays from the norm. Look how he stands as tall as the stars. Can't you just feel how small we all are? Maybe we’ll never figure him out. But maybe the question is what it’s about: people convening to find the meaning together somehow.
Is there anyone out there? Anyone watching what we do? Does someone have a clue? Oh, if someone only knew.Going Spaceward - Quarantine with Me (Official Audio)Going Spaceward2020-03-23 | STREAM OR PURCHASE THIS SONG: https://song.link/i/1503244922

I better shape up Cause you need a man Who can keep you satisfied I better shape up If I’m gonna prove You better prove That your faith is justified Are you sure Yes I’m sure down deep inside

Have you streamed my latest single "Underground"? https://song.link/i/1479959773
LYRICS: You are an awful green monstrosity A human rights atrocity An underwhelming cross between Disgust and animosity
A holiday carol I don't know the words to Why are you like this? I don't know who hurt you Being the ugliest thing that a person could ever give birth to is your only virtue
You walk in and we plug up our noses You smell like a halibut with halitosis Surely you know this But you are a pill I can only ingest in the smallest of doses
An unmet goal A lump of coal A villainous ruler beheading the peasants Christmas is coming, you won't get a present 'Cause, God, you are really unpleasant
You're a mean one, Mr. Grinch You really are a heel. You're as cuddly as a cactus, You're as charming as an eel, Mr. Grinch! You're a bad banana, With a greasy black peel!There are no Thanksgiving songs... so I wrote one....Going Spaceward2019-11-27 | ...on a dare. It's called "I Need You at My Table". Pay up, Ben.

LYRICS: The turkey and the stuffing will all amount to nothing if you're not by my side to share a plateful. I'm staring at this pecan pie. Reminds me of your hazel eye. So I need you at my table.
You'll come on by and meet my folks, and Dad will try some awful jokes. If you're around, then it might be less painful. My mom made something magical and I made awful casserole so I need you at my table.
Soon, the plates will all be cleared. I read somewhere that turkey makes you tired. You can fall asleep in my arms lying on the couch beside the fire.
Before we've gone and filled our plates, before we stop and say the grace, we list off all the things that make us grateful. I'll be sure to mention you. I hope you're thinking of me too. I need you at my table. I need you at my table.Going Spaceward - Lose You To Love Me (Selena Gomez Cover)Going Spaceward2019-11-15 | "Set fires to my forest, and you let it burn, sang off-key in my chorus 'cause it wasn't yours" might be the lyric of the year.

LYRICS: Let's see if I can find the perfect way to say this I see your face and I forget what my own name is Call me slick or sentimental But I think we've got some potential Oh oh oh Oh oh oh I look around and I hear symphonies and classics They're more your jam, I have to wonder where do I fit? Do I stack up when you compare me? The thought alone’s enough to scare me Oh oh oh Oh oh oh
I want to be in your head The lullaby you hum before you hit the bed The melody you just can’t seem to shake In the morning when you wake I’d be the first thing on your mind
I’d go something like Do-do-do-do-do-do-do Do-do-do-do-do-do-do Do-do-do-do-do-do-do Do-do-do-do-do-do-do

I want to be in your head The lullaby you hum before you hit the bed The melody you just can’t seem to shake In the morning when you wake I’d be the first thing on your mind
They say you should always be yourself And that would be the best thing for my health But I’d change up my style and melody If it meant that you would sing with me

Have you streamed my latest single "Underground"? https://song.link/i/1479959773
LYRICS: Seasons change. People don't. Life is strange. Still, it won't be the same as before. Quoth the raven, "Nevermore."
When autumn comes around, I always think of you, from how I worked the nerve to ask you over for a drink or two to how it felt to come back home from work and sink into your arms. Now I've lost you like the leaves have lost their greenish hue.
I always feel it when it gets to October. It's like my soul can feel the chill whenever temperatures lower. It's colder, and supposedly I know that it's over, but I'm under your influence even though I'm totally sober.
Storm clouds form. I don’t know when the hell they'll part. Your voice inside my empty room is like the tell-tale heart. I rip the floorboards 'cause I’m sure you’re just waiting like a curse. I'm haunted in this house like it's October 31st, and while I wear this flannel and I channel all my hurt into this verse...
The falling leaves drift by the window The autumn leaves of red and gold I see your lips, the summer kisses The sun-burned hands I used to hold
Since you went away the days grow long And soon I'll hear old winter's song But I miss you most of all my darling When autumn leaves start to fallLa Vie en rose (Cover)Going Spaceward2019-10-05 | Pardon my French.

Quand elle me prend dans ses bras Elle me parle tout bas Je vois la vie en rose Il me dit des mots d'amour Des mots de tous les jours Et ça me fait quelque chose Il est entré dans mon cœur Une part de bonheur Dont je connais la cause C'est elle pour moi, moi pour elle dans la vie Elle me l'a dit, l'a juré pour la vie Et dès que je l'aperçois Alors je sens en moi Mon cœur qui bat
Hold me close and hold me fast The magic spell you cast This is la vie en rose
When you kiss me heaven sighs And though I close my eyes I see la vie en rose
When you press me to your heart I'm in a world apart A world where roses bloom
And when you speak angels sing from above Everyday words seem to turn into love songs
Give your heart and soul to me And life will always be La vie en rose
And when you speak angels sing from above Everyday words seem to turn into love songs
Give your heart and soul to me And life will always be La vie en roseGoing Spaceward - Underground (Official Audio)Going Spaceward2019-09-20 | AVAILABLE NOW ON ALL PLATFORMS (If not, it will be soon.) https://song.link/i/1479959773
LYRICS: You and me, we used to be real tight But something happened, and we're not alright There's tension It's not the same connection I'm spending every single night alone And you don't even try to call my phone I wonder Why I keep your number I've tried and tried and tried to leave this hell You pull me back, it's like you cast a spell It's tragic The way you work your magic
Every time I get my wits And think that I should call it quits I miss the way you say my name And then I'm back inside your game like...
You don't know the things you do to me I hope soon you'll see you make me feel so down Like I'm underground I'm screaming, "Mercy, please! No more!" I'm not sure that you can even hear a sound 'Cause I'm underground
I'm analyzing every word you say That little joke you made the other day You hurt me I see you're playing dirty I'm falling deeper down the rabbit hole You're in the sun, I'm in the dark and cold I stay blue It's like I love and hate you The bittersweet, it lingers on my tongue I'm in my feelings while you look down from Your tower No one should have this power
Every time I get my wits And think that I should call it quits I miss the way you say my name And then I'm back inside your game like...
You don't know the things you do to me I hope soon you'll see you make me feel so down Like I'm underground I'm screaming, "Mercy, please! No more!" I'm not sure that you can even hear a sound 'Cause I'm underground
The way you changed up is really foul, no free throw 'Cause when I needed you by my side You flew away like it was Heathrow I need a power-up, that extra life or that cheat code 'Cause you and me know that being with you is about as hard as this beat goes Look, here's the part where I rap with a triplet flow Gave you love and it wasn't reciprocal But when I try to say this is it and go I come back, it's so viciously cyclical That's just the cards we're dealt, the dice we roll, the coin we toss They say that love's a game I'm guessing you're the final boss
You don't know the things you do to me I hope soon you'll see you make me feel so down Like I'm underground I'm screaming, "Mercy, please! No more!"

LYRICS: We’re all just trying to live, but we’re all in each other‘s way How much CO2 will I put in the air today? I wrote this on an instrument that I barely even play Someone help us Someone help us Someone help us
Everything that tastes good ruins your teeth or makes you fat They hate you if you're different—if you're this or if you're that Somehow there are people who believe the Earth is flat Someone help us Someone help us Someone help us
Half the population is scared to walk alone at night The other half is taught to always think they're always right Even though we're similar, we still bicker, yell, and fight Someone help us Someone help us Someone help us
Beauty is a construct, I still don't like the way I look Twenty men hoard billions, millions have no food to cook I live on land that someone's great great great grandfather took Someone help us Someone help us Someone help us
We all have our problems, there’s nothing new beneath the sun They tell me life's a gift, but I'm not having that much fun You'll hear this song and nod your head and nothing will be done Someone help us Someone help us Someone help us

I didn't think that I would die today. They smelled my bleeding wounds a mile away. It won't be long. They keep a steady pace. The ocean floor will be my resting place. Now I can faintly hear those sirens sing. My life is hanging from the thinnest string, the thinnest string. They move in packs. Now they've surrounded me. Not one or two; it's a whole family.

Today, fifty years later, here's my version of "Fly Me to the Moon," produced by ibrahim.
Check out my original music here: https://song.link/i/1479959773
LYRICS: Fly me to the moon Let me play among the stars Let me see what spring is like On a, Jupiter and Mars In other words, hold my hand In other words, baby, kiss me Fill my heart with song And let me sing for ever more You are all I long for All I worship and adore In other words, please be true In other words, I love you
They say that every day the universe expands, and we discover certain things that we don't understand. Well, dark matter ain't the only mystery at hand. I'm wond’rin' how I got a girl like you to say that I'm her man.
It's a statistical anomaly, but girl you've got me. Gravity is pulling me to your heavenly body. No astronomical phenomenon could ever stop me. You've got a smile that every star in the galaxy copied.
The constellations couldn't make as beautiful a pattern. The conversations—every night, I ring you up like Saturn. The telescopes tell us folks that you're the coolest view. A supernova's scooting over to make room for you.
'Cause you eclipse every wonder of the cosmos. It's almost unfair to them, but you're the one I want most. It's a miracle that Galileo never found you. If he did, he'd say the universe revolved around you.
Fill my heart with song Let me sing for ever more You are all I long for All I worship and adore In other words, please be true In other words, in other words I love you.Fly Me to the Moon Announcement and TutorialGoing Spaceward2019-07-19 | I wrote the FMTTM verse over a year ago, and I wanted to do a proper cover with production and everything, but I just couldn't get it to sound right. Eventually I just decided to post an acoustic version. This had the unfortunate side effect of creating a clamor for a full version that did not exist. Well, WAIT NO MORE.

I don't want a hug I just wanna sleep The smell of your hair Reminds me of her feet
So don't wait outside my hotel room Just wait 'til I give you a sign 'Cause I get lonesome sometimes Save all the jokes you're gonna make While I see how much drink I can take Then be my mistake
I shouldn't have called 'Cause we shouldn't speak You do make me hard But she makes me weak

Look, I know that I've seen this before High and mighty, at the top of your list Adoring every move, now my rank is sinking But we're both guilty of black or white thinking And through my red eyes, you look pale All of your scars are looking more like scales Two ugly creatures, two sinister preachers Blind to the past, like a couple of monsters; Just a couple of monsters!
So maybe I will talk to you The only way I know how to Mmm, mmm, you've said your speech Mmm, mmm, through sharpened teeth You break the rules and spikes grow from your skin

LYRICS: I never got a spider bite. No super serum's running through my veins. I can’t build a suit of armor, and I don't think I can move things with my brain.
I don’t think Mary Jane would fall for me. Another average guy is all she’d see. But I won’t let it get me down. The greatest hero I can be is me.
I ain’t got no powers, but it won’t get in my way. I don’t need super strength or spider sense to save the day. I know I’ll be okay. Whatever comes my way, I will still say, “Excelsior!”
Maybe there’s no supervillain. Maybe there’s no galaxy at stake. But sometimes life can kick me to the ground. Some days it’s more than I can take.
But, I’ll raise my weapon, learn my lesson, stumble now and then, and find my way. I’ll fight the fight, learn wrong from right, find ways to be a hero every day.
I ain’t got no powers, but it won’t get in my way. I don’t need super strength or spider sense to save the day. I know I’ll be okay. Whatever comes my way, I will still say...

LYRICS: A hundred different guys here in this small town. You’re tryna find the one who feels like home. He’s lying next to you in bed at night time, but somewhere in your head, you’re all alone.
I know that you’ve had your fill of heartbreak. I know you’ve been hurt too many times. But if you take my hand, I hope you’ll find out the love I’ve got for you is a different kind.
If something in your head is asking “Why is this so hard?” Maybe I can show you where to start.
You and me could be easy like hopping out the back of a Chevy®, easy like kickin’ back when things get heavy, easy like getting all wet when it’s pouring rain. You and me could be easy like dipping both feet in the water, easy like lying in the sun when it’s hotter, everything you want without the pain. You and me could be easy.
You know I can’t see into the future. Who knows what the Lord above’s got planned? You need someone with you in the hard times. Someone who’ll be there to understand.
If something in your head is asking “Why is this so hard?” Maybe I can show you where to startHappy Now - Zedd & Elley Duhé (Acoustic Cover)Going Spaceward2018-08-09 | This song randomly came up on my Spotify and I really liked it, so this cover was born. Enjoy!

You're the only one who can up and run Leave me just as empty as the day you came And you hold all the cards, all the broken hearts Strung over your shoulder till it's all in vain
And only you know the strength of your teeth The wash in the weight of your pockets, so deep And lonely
You're a world away Somewhere in the crowd In a foreign place Are you happy now? There's nothing left to say So I shut my mouth So won't you tell me, babe Are you happy now? Are you happy now?
In the palm of your hands You can make me dance Spin me around in circles till I'm wrapped in string You keep on talking sweet till your fingers bleed But don't you dare ask me how I've been
Now only you know the strength of your teeth The wash in the weight of your pockets, so deep And lonely
You're a world away Somewhere in the crowd In a foreign place Are you happy now? There's nothing left to say So I shut my mouth So won't you tell me, babe Are you happy now? Are you happy now?
World away Somewhere in the crowd In a foreign place Are you happy now? There's nothing left to say So I shut my mouth So won't you tell me, babe Are you happy now?Glitter - Charly Bliss (Acoustic Cover)Going Spaceward2018-07-07 | This is one of the first Charly Bliss covers on YouTube WHICH IS A GOSH DARN SHAME BECAUSE THIS BAND IS REALLY GOOD.

LYRICS: Hellmouth'd boy, my vacant queen Glitter in between my teeth Here we gather at your feet Speak himself to sunken sleep Can't stop shitting where you eat You're a joke or I'm just mean I can't cum and I can't lie I can't stop making myself cry
I'll have my cake and eat it too I wish I could be good to you
Am I the best? Or just the first person to say yes? Or just the first person to say...
Like a husband loves a wife Everyday and every night Milk my brain and take my life Everything we say is right Little monkey up your sleeve Kiss each other make a scene "We're all slaves to fame I guess" Push me down, put on your dress
I'll have my cake and eat it too I wish I could be good to you
Am I the best? Or just the first person to say yes? Or just the first person to say...Dying in LA - Panic! at the Disco (Acoustic Cover)Going Spaceward2018-06-30 | I can't believe I said "stranger" literally twice instead of "dreamer". Someone shoot me.

LYRICS: The moment you arrived They built you up The sun was in your eyes You couldn't believe it
Riches all around You're walking Stars are on the ground You start to believe it
Every face along the boulevard is a dreamer just like you You looked at death in a tarot card and you saw what you had to do
But nobody knows you now When you're dying in LA And nobody owes you now When you're dying in LA When you're dying in LA When you're dying in LA The power, the power, the power Oh the power, the power, the power Of LA
Nights at the chateau Trapped in your sunset bungalow You couldn't escape it Yeah
Drink of paradise They told you put your blood on ice You're not gonna make it
Every face along the boulevard is a dreamer just like you You looked at death in a tarot card and you saw what you had to do
But nobody knows you now When you're dying in LA And nobody owes you now When you're dying in LA When you're dying in LA When you're dying in LA The power, the power, the power Oh the power, the power, the power Of LACrush - Tessa Violet Cover (with an original rap lol) 💛Going Spaceward2018-06-27 | 💛💛💛

LYRICS: I can't focus on what needs to get done I'm on notice hoping that you don't run You think I'm tepid but I'm misdiagnosed 'Cause I'm a stalker I seen all of your posts Ah
And I'm just tryna play it cool now But that's not what I wanna do now And I'm not tryna be with you now, you now
[Verse 2] You make it difficult to not overthink And when I'm with you I turn all shades of pink I wanna touch you but don't wanna be weird It's such a rush, I'm thinking wish you were here Ah
[Pre-Chorus] And I'm just tryna play it cool now But that's not what I wanna do now And I'm not tryna be with you now, you now
But I could be your crush, like Throw you for a rush, like Hoping you'd text me so I could tell you I been thinking 'bout your touch like Touch, touch, touch, touch, touch I could be your crush, crush, crush, crush, crush I got a fascination with your presentation Making me feel like you're on my island, you're my permanent vacation Touch, touch, touch, touch, touch I could be your crush, crush, crush, crush, crush Sorry
[Verse 3] I fill my calendar with stuff I can do Maybe if I'm busy it could keep me from you And I'm pretending you ain't been on my mind But I took an interest in the things that you like Ah
[Pre-Chorus] And I'm just tryna play it cool now But that's not what I wanna do now And I'm not tryna be with you now, you now
[Chorus]
[Rap] Stop me if you've already heard this. I tend to get a little nervous when I gotta tell a pretty young thing that she fills my heart like a Sunday service.
I'm mad infatuated, and that's exacerbated by my jealousy of every Stanley, Tom, and Jack you've dated.
I need a steady dose of you—that intravenous flow. And now, the Tony goes to you because you steal the show.
Three birds in the bush and only two in my hand, but maybe you and me could do like season two Jim and Pam.
If you ain’t feeling what I sing, it don’t gotta be a thing. No, I ain’t proposing marriage. I ain’t coming with a ring.
But I’m actually in agony just thinking 'bout your touch. You don’t have to fall in love, but baby, let me be your crush.
And I'm just tryna play it cool now But that's not what I wanna do now And I'm not tryna be with you now, you nowNatural Disaster (Original Song)Going Spaceward2018-05-25 | Hey! It's been a long time since I've posted (or written, for that matter) an original song. I've never written a blues song before. Go easy! :)

LYRICS: You're the patron saint of raining on parades, honey. You don't even have to try. You just do. That's just the way it is. Don't think I'm pointing blame, honey, 'cause it sucks as much for us as it does for you— me and all the cities you’ve rolled through. Since I'm not what you're after, I'm just another victim of your natural disaster.
Mother Nature gave you powers that you hate, honey. But, I would kill to do the damage you can do. You've got a million different options on your plate, honey, and what it takes to make somebody go and sing the blues. If I could just be in your shoes... Since I'm not what you're after, I'm just another victim of your natural disaster.
Now, there's another sucker with a story like mine—in need of FEMA relief. But, I'm the one who's gotta hold this hurricane tight even though it gives me so much grief.
I know all of this is driving you insane, honey. I'm well aware that you're alone and need a friend. I won't apologize for drowning in your rain, honey. So, tell me what we're gonna do 'cause I'm at my wits' end. Maybe we could just pretend and cover up with laughter the fact that I'm a victim of your natural disaster. I'm just another victim of your natural disaster.
