Lost Cosmonaut lyrics

Call me no rank My name is now forever gone Never to be retrieved I'm sky buried Into an orbit no one knows And no one ever will Failure when the retrorockets backfired Messages not received by ground control Astray on a route beyond returning Blue dot way too far to become hope Our final words never written No cenotaph, no report We are the ones never to be rewarded I am the lost cosmonaut We are the ones never to be rewarded I am the lost cosmonaut Left to wait for certain death as my life support runs out Edited out of history, now I'm gone beyond all doubt My spacecraft's a sarcophagus as I drift away from sight What my eyes saw is yet to be described Our final words never written No cenotaph, no report We are the ones never to be rewarded I am the lost cosmonaut We are the ones never to be rewarded I am the lost cosmonaut
