Thomas Dolby - N.e.o. - Sözleri

N.E.O.





Near Earth Object.

A solid body whose orbit lies within the orbit of Mars.



Moons Asteroids. Meteorites.



And human debris.



You can see a meteorite almost any night.

Go out to the desert





They are pieces of stars,

You might find a piece.





Same as you and me





They have travelled through space for thousands of years.





Perhaps you will get lucky



but you will never find a piece of Soyuz



or Sputnik or Apollo 9

They are still out there







They are very faint

And the pollution in earths atmosphere



washes out their pale light









Floating without air, without light

or else - charred on the re-entry



They are still out there floating





within the orbit of Mars.





Look at it this way:



a river of space, a ribbon of time



like a burial by a beaurocrat



undercover of a cold war risk.



a cloud of dust-a cloud of rubble



spinning in space on the heels of the Hubble



a parallel, or a temporal rip



in the belly of the Cosmos



a fossilized finger

somewhere in a hanger





stored by the government, hidden from the press



some young top gun s first solo



turned out to be a N.E.O.
