Bonecage, Dan Bull - Today's the Day You Die (Alone in Space) lyrics

I was considered myself a humble individual
Dressed in muted colors
Haircut was unoriginal
Faded in the background of
Numbers and digital signals under the radar
May as well have become invisible
I just wanted to get on with my job
Feed my family back home, my son and my dog
But it wasn't to be, no, it wasn't my lot
Cause, I was summoned to plead
My comeuppance with God looking back
Maybe I shouldn't have been a stranger
My shipmates saw it as suspicious behavior
And when you think you're in danger
Your brain just
Doesn't consider there could be
Legitimate ways to explain
Somеbody's not involved
In a case that's unsolved
Thеy won't wait til it's cold
Up in space where the laws
Aren't the same as enforced
Back at base, they're not waiting
To take it to court, it's unfortunate

Such a brutal sentence carried out
On a decent man
He begged and pleaded and tried
To make them understand
He spoke the truth when all
They wanted was a lie
They judged him guilty
And they sent him off to die alone in space

They said a corpse had been found
I never saw it
When it was reported I was sat on the toilet
How could I be embroiled and
Entangled in this scandal
When I had my trousers down on
The ground around my ankles?
By the time I'd left the cubicle
I'd get accused of all
The things of which I knew little
Flipping beautiful my hands were barely dry
They said I might have had blood on them
But, I'm an innocent guy, come on
Have you forgotten:
No opportunity for me to testify
No fair trial just a death-defying leap
And I've run out of air miles
No plea for clemency, that isn't their style
I just never seem to catch a break
I may be here a while
So I guess I'll breathe this oxygen
Until this oxygen just stops again
No option but to breathe this oxygen
Until this oxygen just stops again

Such a brutal sentence carried out
On a decent man
He begged and pleaded and tried
To make them understand
He spoke the truth when all
They wanted was a lie
They judged him guilty
And they sent him off to die alone in space
Such a brutal sentence carried out
On a decent man
He begged and pleaded and tried
To make them understand
He spoke the truth when all
They wanted was a lie
They judged him guilty
And they sent him off to die

So I guess I'll breathe this oxygen
Until this oxygen just stops again
No option but to breathe this oxygen
Until this oxygen just stops again

The end you suffer is the ultimate disgrace
Lost forever and today's the day
You die alone in space
They who judge are keen to seal an awful fate
What a trip it's been
Today's the day you die alone in space
So I guess I'll breathe this oxygen
Until this oxygen just stops again
No option but to breathe this oxygen
Today's the day you die alone in space
So I guess I'll breathe this oxygen
Until this oxygen just stops again
No option but to breathe this oxygen
Today's the day you die alone in space
