[Verse 1]
It started with a low light
Next thing I knew they ripped me from my bed
And then they took my blood type
It left a strange impression in my head
You know that I was hoping
That I could leave this star-crossed world behind
But when they cut me open
I guess I changed my mind
[Hook]
And you know I might
Have just flown too far from the floor this time
Because they're calling me by my name
And the zipping white light beams
Disregards the bombs and satellites
That was the turning point
That was one lonely night
The star maker says, "It is not so bad"
The dream maker's going to make you mad
The spaceman says, "Everybody look down
It's all in your mind"
[Verse 2]
Well now I'm back at home, and
I'm looking forward to this life I live
You know its going to haunt me
So hesitation to this life I give
You think you might cross over
You're caught between the devil and the deep blue sea
You better look it over
Before you make that leap
[Hook 2]
And you know I'm fine
But I hear those voices at night sometimes
They justify my claim
And the public don't turn on
My transmission ‘cause it wasn't televised
But it was the turning point
Oh, what a lonely night
[Verse 3]
My global position systems are vocally addressed
They say the Nile used to run from East to West
They say the Nile used to run
From East to West
And you know I'm fine
But I hear those voices at night
Sometimes
[Hook 1]
[Outro]
It's all in my mind
