The Killers - Day And Age (2008) - Spaceman lyrics

  • It started with a low light
    Next thing I knew they ripped me from my bed
    And then they took my blood type
    They left a strange impression in my head
    You know that I was hopin'
    That I could leave this star crossed behind
    When they cut me open
    I guess I changed my mind

    And you know I might
    Just walk too far from the floor this time
    Cause they're calling me by my name
    And they're zipping with light beams
    To street corners, phones, and satellites
    Oh that was the turning point,
    That was one lonely night
    The star maker says it ain't so bad
    The dream maker's gonna make you mad
    The spaceman says, "Everybody look down
    It's all in your mind"

    Well, now I'm back at home
    And I'm looking forward to this life I live
    You know it's gonna haunt me
    So hesitation to this life I give
    You think you might cross over
    You're caught between the devil and the deep blue sea
    You better look it over
    Before you make that leap

    And you know I'm fine
    But I hear those voices at night
    Sometimes that justify my claim
    And the public don't dwell on my transmission
    Cause it wasn't televised
    But it was the starting point
    On a lonely night
    The star maker says it ain't so bad
    The dream maker's gonna make you mad
    The spaceman says, “Everybody look down
    It's all in your mind”

    The star maker says it ain't so bad
    The dream maker's gonna make you mad
    The spaceman says, “Everybody look down
    It's all in your mind”

    My global position systems are vocally addressed
    They say the Nile used to run from East to West
    They say the Nile used to run from East to West
    The star maker says it ain't so bad
    The dream maker's gonna make you mad
    The spaceman says, “Everybody look down
    It's all in your mind”

    The star maker says it ain't so bad
    The dream maker's gonna make you mad
    The spaceman says, “Everybody look down
    It's all in your mind”

    It's all in my mind
    It's all in my mind
    It's all in my mind
    It's all in my mind
    It's all in my mind
    It's all in my mind
