What Elephant? - Blast Shields Down! Lyrics

Through the porthole window
Steal another look at my love
Feet in the grass
Sun on my back
Oh God what have I done?

Red alarm blaring
A voice on the intercom

To die in your womb
If only to drown

If I ever knew you at all
What I'd give to kiss you
But I never could give you my heart
But I let it go

Spotted our shuttle by satellite
They asked no questions

With schemes disguised in dreams
And when the laser beam hit
And the ship hull split
