"Rocket Science" lyrics

"Rocket Science"

I bet you're out there seeing stars
In someone else's eyes by now
While I'm just out here in the dark
Sparking up and burning out
This Backwoods you had rolled for us
But it don't pack the same old punch
Your memory's gravity
And it just keeps me down

Yeah, if I found a way to make it past the moon
I bet this heart would aim itself right back at you
Ain't no way underneath this sky
I'm getting over you, I can't get that high
But I'm leaving smoke trails trying
Forgetting you's like rocket science

No, there ain't no fuse that sets me loose
And sends me soaring somewhere else
Tried getting gone but it ain't no use
I can't get past the way it felt
When you took off at the speed of sound
'Cause that goodbye still hangs around
Said space and time were what you needed
But, damn, I need you now

Yeah, if I found a way to make it past the moon
I bet this heart would aim itself right back at you
Ain't no way underneath this sky
I'm getting over you, I can't get that high
But I'm leaving smoke trails trying
Forgetting you's like rocket science
Like rocket science

I got a feeling this feeling ain't got a fix
Yeah, and taking these hits remind me what I miss

If I found a way to make it past the moon
I bet this heart would aim itself right back at you
Ain't no way underneath this sky
I'm getting over you, I can't get that high
But I'm leaving smoke trails trying
I'm leaving smoke trails trying
Forgetting you's like rocket science
