Light Years Songtext
von Between The Jars

Wasting, everyday
Consuming, throwing away
Careless, roaming around
But every step comes, with less time to count

Piles are rising higher, oh yeah
Space to breath becomes scarcer still
But the kettle isn′t bursting
There's still some space to fill

It′s all light years away
The future isn't now
The future isn't here
The future′s far away
There′s nothing to fear

Heat is burning up the world for all men to see
Luckily we can leave this world in a spaceship, we're free
Off all the worries and responsibilities
It′s such a soothing thought that we can always leave


Gears are, turning fast
Working, while they last
Time is, running out
With every step comes less time to count

We're looking for a new place to live
Scouring galaxies far away
To what resembles what we lost
By ignoring the present day

It′s all light years away
The future isn't now
The future isn′t here
The future's far away
There's nothing to fear

Travelling through the blackness on our way to home 2.0
The bright light in our back says that we really needed to go
There′s thousands of worlds that we can still explore
We messed up on our home world now we look for door number two

We′re still looking for a new place to live
Scouring galaxies near and far
But we still haven't found the answer
We′re only seeing stars
