"In From Japan" lyrics

Rocket to land
In from Japan
Tell me what's your mission here
Lord only knows
It's been weighing on your mind

Eyes are like signals
Traveling missiles
Waiting on an act of God
To level the pressure
And the claustrophobia

It comes and goes
Cosmic revelation
And plateaus
Tryin' to be the next original
In a tribute band
Watermark
They're trying to own the image
Nature carved
Well metadata won't support your cause
Did you expect anything more, or less?

No one's holding you back now
No one's holding you back now

Carnival skies
Ballet on ice
Bombs exploding in reverse
The world's greatest song
Is one no mortal's ever heard

Wired for sound
Infected with doubt
Petals falling at your feet
It's hard to pick out the imitation
From the real thing

Out from the West
The city sparkles like a sequined dress
You're sitting right across from a lifeless
Animation of yourself
The dog days
Are getting smaller as you pull away
A phone line from the future
Calls to say, "You're gonna mess it up again
My friend"

No one's holding you back now
No one's holding you back now

The planet in orbit wanes
Some things are too hard to say
Out loud

No one's holding you back now
No one's holding you back now
No one's holding you back now
No one's holding you back now
