Easy to poke yourself square in the eye

Harder to like yourself, harder to try

These Elvis poses, postcards and neopryn

Roses a dollar a stem

Everyone's sleeping or pulling a long haul,

the keys in the cooler, it's 3 A.M.



and Saturn is beckoning no one

is off on its own

is offering up



Late shift convenience store

Cut out the lights

Telescope roof towards the

northwestern sky

You pull the ladder up

no one's the wiser

You find your sights and discover



that Saturn is orbiting nothing

is off on its own

is breaking from home.



Harder to look yourself square in the eye

Easy to take off.



You found the ladder in the pattern of your wrist

You've seen and you've marked horizons

Mother was difficult she made you cry

Cover the mirror, look at the sky

You climb into your rocketship triumph

Lift up and hold out your hands.



Saturn is orbiting nothing

is off on its own

is breaking from home.



Saturn is orbiting nothing

is off on its own

is breaking from home.



Saturn return when you chase down its moons

Throw them into a new gravity.



Harder to look yourself square in the eye

Easy to poke yourself, easy as pie

Easy to take off, harder to fly

Harder to wake Galileo
