Mothership, Mothership, Do You Read Me? lyrics

Song information

Artist: Cursive
Album: Burst And Bloom

Lyrics

Your navel is yearning for an extension - a ghost limb
It cant detach from mothers loving grasp
Your starving - its burning for the nutrient it cant have
Were all cut off alone and lost
Calling out to homebase, do you read me?
(Emergency: were floating endlessly)
Transmission terminated
Youve been created, severed from life and limb
Stranded an infant
On the front step of the universe
Infinitely searching for a warmth
Once loved, now lost forever
Mothership mothership do you read me?
Does anyone hear my siren song?
Maybe ill be rescued before too long
Calling out to homebase one last time
(The signal faded out the ship is gone)
Still starving for the reason
You were created
Then severed from life and limb
Stranded an infant
On the front step of the universe
Infinitely searching for a warmth
Once loved
Now lost forever
