thomas dolby - n.e.o. كلمات الأغنية

n.e.o.

near earth object.
a solid body whose orbit lies within the orbit of mars.

moons asteroids. meteorites.

and human debris.

you can see a meteorite almost any night.
go out to the desert

they are pieces of stars,
you might find a piece.

same as you and me

they have travelled through sp-ce for thousands of years.

perhaps you will get lucky

but you will never find a piece of soyuz

or sputnik or apollo 9
they are still out there

they are very faint
and the pollution in earths atmosphere

washes out their pale light

floating without air, without light
or else – charred on the re-entry

they are still out there floating

within the orbit of mars.

look at it this way:

a river of sp-ce, a ribbon of time

like a burial by a beaurocrat

undercover of a cold war risk.

a cloud of dust-a cloud of rubble

spinning in sp-ce on the heels of the hubble

a parallel, or a temporal rip

in the belly of the cosmos

a fossilized finger
somewhere in a hanger

stored by the government, hidden from the press

some young top gun s first solo

turned out to be a n.e.o.
