Lyrics

40 SECONDS
(Written and Composed by Michael Drive)

Looking out my little window
See all the people down there below
Wishing they could all climb in
I’m wishing only that it will not blow

40 seconds till the gasses burn
I’m happy to be on the list
Soon I’ll be floating way up
Will you send her up here for one last kiss?

Tomorrow will be…
Lonely when the sun is far away
Cold and dark I’m drifting into space
My heart is racing, I feel very strange… but nice

Drinking lunch with my little window-
Shows me what looks like… Africa
Float down to the gym where I work out my tension
I feel so alive
Here it does not rain-
Where you can kiss your lover-
soaked but you don’t care
Love my electronic life; I’ll die for it? deep in here?

Miles away my family celebrates
I’m stroking my video cam display
But the sound is garbled coming out
And it’s just my past life anyway, today
It’s just my past life anyway, today
