lyrics

Drinking in a bar in the belt called Kuiper,
Last stop before the solar systems far away.

Told my mother that I'll dearly miss her,
Transmission takes a few days to relay.

Received her reply in a bar called Kuiper,
Been downing fine whiskey for many days.

Never told the bartender that I loved her,
Might as well before I go away.

Priming with my pals in a bar called Kuiper,
The most daring of humankind in many ways.

Abandoning safety to ensure our future,
We might never return, but that's okay.

Lingering in a bar in the belt called Kuiper,
Too scared to leave, too weary to stay.

But I should have left much sooner,
Countless stars and worlds I must survey.

Wavering in a bar in the belt called Kuiper,
Drink my hesitation and my fear away.

Slam another empty glass on the counter.
Something draws me. Something draws me away.

Drinking in a bar in the belt called Kuiper,
Last peg before the solar systems far away.

I board my vessel in a drunken stupor,
Eventually, the universe calls me away.

An absolutely beautiful track. It truly invokes an image of a dystopian cyberpunk world in the head of the listener, and brings its characters to life. pbjis2op4me

This might be the band that displaces Metallica as my favorite heavy metal band! It's heavy and has social commentary, which are my two favorite things in music. flannel_bear

I first heard "Fly For Your Life" in a game trailer and I've been hooked since. Songs for hard bitten optimists and joyful nihilists. 𝕎𝕒𝕟𝕕𝕖𝕣𝕖𝕣
