Saturn Return — REM

Easy to poke yourself Square in the eye Harder to like yourself, Harder to try These Elvis poses, Postcards and neopryn Roses a dollar a stem Everyone's sleeping or Pulling a long haul, The keys in the cooler, It's 3 AM And Saturn is beckoning no one Is off on its own Is offering up

Late shift convenience store Cut out the lights Telescope roof towards the Northwestern sky You pull the ladder you No one's the wiser Tou find your sights and discover

That Saturn is orbiting nothing Is off on its own Is breaking from home

Harder to look yourself Square in the eye Easy to take off

You found the ladder in The pattern of your wrist You've seen and You've marked horizons Mother was difficult, She made you cry Cover the mirror, Look to the sky You climbed into Your rocketship triumph Lift up and hold out your hands

Saturn is orbiting nothing Is off on its own Is breaking from home

Saturn is orbiting nothing Is off on its own Is breaking from home

Saturn return when You chase down its moons Throw them into a new gravity

Harder to look yourself Square in the eye Easy to poke yourself, Easy as pie Easy to take off, Harder to fly Harder to wake Galileo
