Everything Beautiful Is Far Away |
He just finished |
Eating dinner |
And stepped outside the cave to smoke |
A cigarette he’d made |
From rolled up photo paper |
They were pictures of things back on earth |
He looked out |
On the grayish white expanse |
Of uninhabited terrain |
He now called home |
He’d seen plenty |
Mirages and imaginary visitors |
Up until then |
So he wasn’t sure what to think when |
He saw swans |
And they were wading on the shores |
Of a pale white lake |
He had never seen there before |
And it was quite beautiful |
And it was far away |
Cause everything beautiful is far away |
He knew he was as good as gone |
But gone was somewheres |
He really didn’t mind going to |
Since the shuttle had crashed |
Many years had passed |
And the pictures of his loved ones |
That he drew on the walls of the cave |
Had finally faded |
He put out his smoke |
And proceeded towards the lake |
Repeating to himself |
Everything beautiful is far away. |
