Lyrics

You looked like worldwide Armageddon / While you slept
You looked so peaceful it scared me
Don’t die just yet / And leave me
Alone alone alone
On this journey / Round the sun
Oh, Javelin!
Oh, Javelin!
Unlanding
Sometimes it’s hard to know when / To call it an evening
See as much as we can stand / Stand ’til we stagger
Laying all twisted together and exposed
Like roots on a river bank
Bam bam bam! / The earth off its axis
The first drafts in ashes / And smeared on our faces
Oh, Javelin!
Oh, Javelin!
Unlanding
