I was told we came in rockets
Davy Crocketts
Beaten and lone
Looking for gold
Dead to the bone
When the Martian dust subsided
We found loved ones
Waiting for us
Glad you’re all back
Nice cup of tea
Flowers were brought to their graves
Filled with remembered remains
Foreign to Martian terrain
Earthlings that died far away
It still felt good to be bound
To those empty holes in the ground
Filled with remembered remains
So he spoke
Musing in his rocking chair
Curling his hands in my hair
Locks of smoke
echoed the words from his lips
There was a time when we were Earthlings
Mining mirage
Now we’ve all changed mixing our blood with the foe
We became dust eyed and bold
Smashed up the radio controls
Chorus

The Giants

She leaned against the glass
Half buried in the dark
Put up her thumb one eye closed
And blotted out the glow
Where all her loved ones were
Or used to be
You’ve got nothing left but me
It’s all magnificent desolation
The giants were blown to dust
It’s all magnificent desolation
It’s all gone with the wind
She pushed away
And shrunk into herself
To shed her tears
Rotating In the air
Atomic winter
Snow globe sun
That burned her eyes
And burned her mind
That tiny frozen pearl
Half-buried in the black
Pretty and pale
A clank reverberates
My circuit sparks and grates
That’s when she jerked up the hatch
Got blown out into space
But I still feel attached
To flesh and bone
I’ve got nothing left but my own
Chorus
