lyrics

as we raise our heads, we saw an afterglow
but the silver walls are so monochrome
and the oxygen is so low
they never planned to bring her home

she is helpless now
we can reach for the stars but can't fall down

alive, they shot her into the empty night
a flash of light, rocket thrusters burning bright
survive, changing colors in the sky
as time counts down for laika

as we raise our heads, we saw a falling star
and wherever you land, i know it can't be far
you were the first to feel the weightlessness,
the formlessness and helplessness
wondering where you are

she is stardust now
we burn out bright but don't know how

alive, they shot her into the empty night
a flash of light, rocket thrusters burning bright
survive, changing colors in the sky
as time counts down for laika
