A Peculiar Hallelujah

We said sirrah to the sun
And boarded that plastic ship in the rain
They’re watching every step that we take
We kissed the crowded field and were gone
Why do they seem to respond?
We waited for an answer that never came
And the families that we left are in a haze
The read it in the paper and then they say
That we have lost contact now
And our instruments are down and
We were gone without a sound but
We cried hallelujah now
We are sent right into space and
We don’t need the navigation
We don’t need the self defenses
Now
We cried hallelujah now
We cried hallelujah now
We cried hallelujah now
We cried hallelujah now
We cried hallelujah now
We cried hallelujah now
