Omar Rodríguez-López - Proxima Centauri lyrics

[Verse 1] T-minus ten seconds and counting Ten seconds to counting T-minus ten seconds and counting Ten seconds to go T-minus ten seconds to counting [Pre-Chorus] Metronome charisma Keeping time in slingshot tempo [Chorus] Utopia, the landfill crawls Omens that back the truth Erase the veins of this dateline As it tells the story Of this Roman fracture space time cliché [Verse 2] I can't believe the feeble recipe Civilization tastes so good Nero has conquered the stars No one ever saw the spacesuit togas A wreath around the head like Saturn's rings [Bridge] Stole your recipe The ghost ship cemetery We won't lie [Verse 1] T-minus ten seconds and counting Ten seconds to counting T-minus ten seconds and counting Ten seconds to go T-minus ten seconds to counting [Chorus] Utopia, the landfill crawls Omens that back the truth Erase the veins of this dateline As it tells the story Of this Roman fracture space time cliché [Verse 2] I can't believe, et tu, Brute? Unfolding Under the breath, under the fall Caligula time warp Decadence in fleets come rain storming Under threats of gluttony and lies [Bridge] Stole your recipe The ghost ship cemetery We won't lie
