Lyrics Crying About the Planets - Ratboys

Crying About the Planets

Laying out, upon the ground
It started when he vanished
The sledge crept up to the mouth
Slipping into crevasses
A broken lieutenant
Strong wind and pale light
His body fell into the ice
Once or twice, I thought I might
Take my life and throw it
Into that great abyss
But, I must admit I’d be remiss
If I didn’t tell you
That I can’t quit this
Hell is frozen, and it’s relentless
Eat my dogs, one by one
And cry about the planets
In this ceaseless stretch of white
Will I ever live to go
Back to Australia?
The red rocks glow at night
It’s tough to recall because everything is white
Every last one of them is gone
Every last one of them is gone
Every last one of them is gone
Every last one of them is gone
Every last one of them is dead
Every last one of them is dead
Every last one of them is dead
Every last one of them is dead
