Lyrics

Yes this is a campaign
Slithered entrails
In the cargo bay
Neutered is the vastness
Hallow vacuum check the
Oxygen tanks
They hibernate
But have they kissed the ground
Pucker up and kiss the asphalt now
Tease this amputation
Splintered larynx
It has access now

Cut away, cut away
Send transmission
From the one-armed scissor
Cut away, cut away

Banked on memory
Mummified circuitry
Skin graft, machinery
Sputnik sickles found in the seats

Self-destruct sequence
This station is non-operational
Species growing
Bubbles in an iv loitering

Unknown origin
Is this the comfort of being afraid?
Solar eclipsed
Black out the vultures
As they wait

Cut away, cut away
Send transmission
From the one-armed scissor
(Get away, get away)

Dissect a trillion sighs away
Will you get this letter?
Jagged pulp sliced in my veins
I write to remember
Cause I'm a million miles away
Will you get this letter?
Jagged pulp sliced in my veins
I write to remember..
I write to remember..
My right to remember..

Cut away, cut away
Send transmission
From the one-armed scissor
Cut away, cut away
(Cut away cut away cut away cut away)
