[Dm7 Am7 Gm7]
Since sin is crime and time is thin,
[Dm7 Am7 Gm7]
In two short weeks, the ship comes in
[Dm7 Am7 Gm7]
I’ll never see my family again.
[Dm7 Am7 Gm7]
Oh I’ll never see my family again!

[VERSE - ANTAGONIST (SECOND SINGER)]
[Dm Bb Dm Bb]
We terraformed our troubles away,
[Dm Bb Dm Bb]
They won’t see the light of my day,
[Gm7 Am7 Dm7]
They’ll never oppose me again.
[Gm7 Am7 Dm7]
They’ll never oppose me again!
[Dm Bb Dm Bb]
Free to move on with those just like me,
[Dm Bb Dm Bb]
Into the sunset with with my misery,
[Gm7 Am7 Dm7]
my money, my gold, and my time.
[Gm7 Am7 Dm7]
my money, my gold, there's no more time!

[Verse - PROTAGONIST (FIRST SINGER)]
[Dm7 Am7 Gm7]
They picked me up around midnight,
[Dm7 Am7 Gm7]
at dawn I woke in a holding cell,
[Dm7 Am7 Gm7]
two miles under the sea’s surface,
[Dm7 Am7 Gm7]
awaiting interstellar transport to hell.
[Dm7 Am7 Gm7]
The auto-judge charged me
[Dm7 Am7 Gm7]
with thinking deemed senseless,
[Dm7 Am7 Gm7]
cause last year I popped positive,
[Dm7 Am7 Gm7]
in the global thought census.
[Dm7 Am7 Gm7]
I’ve heard lore or where I’m going.
[Dm7 Am7 Gm7]
They say it truly can be worse,
[Dm7 Am7 Gm7]
Even more than living here,
[Dm7 Am7 Gm7]
My existence is a curse.
[Gm7 Am7 Dm7]

[VERSE - ANTAGONIST (SECOND SINGER)]
[Dm Bb Dm Bb]
When we’re scanning your head,
[Dm Bb Dm Bb]
and detect feelings of dread,
[Gm7 Am7 Dm7]
or aggression and anger, In leu of what you have
[Gm7 Am7 Dm7]
[Dm Bb Dm Bb]
There will be no goodbyes.
[Dm Bb Dm Bb]
No calls, no letters, no holiday surprise.
[Gm7 Am7 Dm7]
There will be no sunrise, No trees, no creatures, not even a fly
[Gm7 Am7 Dm7]
[Dm Bb Dm Bb]
After all we gave you,
[Dm Bb Dm Bb]
everything you have,
[Gm7 Am7 Dm7]
your nutrient capsules, and the tarp over your head.
[Gm7 Am7 Dm7]

reverence, and gratitude, and get a flawless report.
