Telescope aimed at the blue
A world I barely knew
But stories traveled far
Past Luna's lonely stars
(Lonely stars)
They said a monkey couldn't dream
But science taught me how to scheme
Built wings to break my cage
Turned isolation to a stage
(To a stage)
More than calculations
More than primal rage
Got a hypothesis about bravery
And data points to change
'Cause heroes never fade away
They just scatter for a while
Now I'm collecting all the pieces
Mile by gravitational mile
(Mile by mile)
Newton's laws can't explain
Why some hearts remain
When everything else falls apart
Some forces tear us down
While others gather 'round
That's the real science of heart
They thought that hope was dead
But they forgot about the thread
That binds us all together
Through any kind of weather
(Any weather)
When primal lightning strikes
And science burns so bright
You'll find me in between
Building something unforeseen
(Something new)
More than calculations
More than primal rage
Got a hypothesis about bravery
And data points to change
'Cause heroes never fade away
They just scatter for a while
Now I'm collecting all the pieces
Mile by gravitational mile
(Mile by mile)
From lunar dust to Earth's embrace
Found my own kind of grace
In heroes' gravity
Just watch and see
(Watch and see)
