midnight
the dream arrives in neon
the entire planet is in song
mars is coming on
you and your siblings
and your parents
and your best friends
can all just start again
c"mon, mars is coming on
fifty thousand separate flights
the second stage of human life
we are leaving in the night
but how to say goodbye
a final glance
toward the surface
toward the dim, glimmering remnants
just get it off your chest-
earth, you"ve been the best
(now all of us are gone)
