Blazing Moon - Mission Failure

This song is about the first mission to Mars. They get trapped there and can't get home to Earth when they make a hard landing. Lyrics: [Verse 1] They called it first light We called it by name Forty million miles And a new kind of flame We left with our banners Our maps, and our pride Six faces in gold glass With the whole Earth inside [Pre-Chorus] Then the horizon rose up Too fast, too hard Metal screamed one long note We hit the black rock hard [Chorus] Tell me we go home Tell me we go home Red dust on our hands And the sky broke stone Tell me we go home Tell me we go home We came to Mars alive Now the way back's gone (gone) [Verse 2] The nose cone split open The comms went blind One thruster kept coughing Like it changed its mind We crawled through the wreckage In a low oxygen haze Saw the Earth on a screen Like a blue ghost in flames [Pre-Chorus] And nobody said it But we all knew it then That ship was our weather Our doorway, our friend [Chorus] Tell me we go home Tell me we go home Red dust on our hands And the sky broke stone Tell me we go home Tell me we go home We came to Mars alive Now the way back's gone (gone) [Bridge] I heard Mira breathing Through the crack in her seal She said, "Do you hear that?" I said, "Yeah, it's real" No rescue on the timer No clean path through the dark Just six hearts beating In a dead machine's heart [Final Chorus] Tell me we go home Tell me we go home Red dust on our hands And the sky broke stone Tell me we go home Tell me we go home If this is where we end Then let it mean more (more) Tell me we go home Tell me we go home First to Mars, last to know The way back's gone (gone) #music #rockmusic #rock #newmusic #newsong #mars #mission #space #universe #aimusic
