High Moon Lyrics - Space Metal - Arjen Anthony Lucassen

Memories come back to me, it's the 22nd century 

Unthinkable events occur on the 3rd moon of Jupiter 

I'd leave this hellhole if I could 

The mining's hard but the pay is good 

There is only one way to survive 

I take the drug to stay alive 

The shuttlecraft has landed, the killers have arrived 

I know I'm alone here, there is no one on my side 

I'm ready for the showdown, so let the chase begin 

I will not be defeated 

I have made a solemn vow to leave here soon 

High moon 

High moon 

High moon 

High moon 

The company is trying to hide the higher rates of suicide 

There's no pain and much to gain, but then the drug destroys their brain 

I gotta leave this evil place 

I don't belong in outer space 

Outside it's zero atmosphere 

The only way to get out of here 

The shuttlecraft has landed, the killers have arrived 

I know I'm alone here, there is no one on my side 

I'm ready for the showdown, so let the chase begin 

I will not be defeated 

I have made a solemn vow to leave here soon 

High Moon 

He had to choose between his part in this machine 

Or going back with her to earth 

He never had a choice, but when he heard her voice 

He fought for all that he was worth 

He had to choose between his part in this machine 

I had to choose, I could not lose 

Or going back with her to earth 

Had to get back to you 

He never had a choice, but when he heard her voice 

I had no choice, I heard your voice 

He fought for all that he was worth 

I had to survive, had to stay alive 

High moon 

High moon 

The shuttlecraft has landed, the killers have arrived 

I know I'm alone here, there is no one on my side 

I'm ready for the showdown, so let the chase begin 

I will not be defeated 

I have made a solemn vow to leave here soon 

High Moon
