lyrics

And we’re talking face to face
And I’m trusting my own judgement
And you’re staring into space
And I’m trying to take you to all the furthest places that I know

But on a clear day, you can still see home

If I pretend I’m all alone
And all I can see are ones and zeroes
And heaven forbid that they should know anything
And for the thousandth time I’m going just as fast as I can go

And way up high
I swear you turned away
Looking down
The city looks like falling
And one more chance
That I’ve already blew
No escape
But why would you want to

And baby did you know
They faked the moon landing
Fooling everybody
To keep us together
And baby did you hear
They never really made it
They faked the moon landing
We’re stuck here forever

And baby did you hear
They faked the moon landing
They’ve never really been there at all
