Put me on the first ship bound for Mars
And get me out of here
Where nothing but the silence and the stars
Will land upon my eyes and ears
'Cause I can hardly breathe
We're broken beyond grief
The world that stays behind has started to unweave
It's time I take my leave
We're told by everyone there are two sides
With nothing in between
If we resist the urge to polarize
Our voices are not heard, we are unseen
The lie we've long been told
Has finally taken hold
You're for us or against, on one side of the fence
The only way to peace is violence
We live with constant anger, constant tears
A world awash with deep religious fears
A gun for you, a few for me, and then
A countdown leads us to the bitter end
'Cause I can hardly breathe
We're broken beyond grief
The world that stays behind has started to unweave
It's time I take my leave
So put me on the first ship bound for Mars
