    Story Behind the Song
    Cosmonaut took a long long time to write. The first verse and the chorus were easy. They fell out of my brain while I was walking home from school one day. The other two verses didn't come so easily. I had to pry them out of my brain with a crowbar. That sucked. But I had to finish the song. The way it was before crowbar-ing, it would have been about fourty seconds long. If you'll notice, on this EP, all of the songs are short. There's two reasons for that. One is that I wish I could get away with writing lots and lots of fourty second songs. The muse will hit me hard to write the beginning and/or hook to a song and then it'll fade and I have to force the rest of the song out of me. Creativity sucks that way. The second is for you, the listener. In this fast paced world, who has time to listen to a long epic like American Pie? No, in this information-based high-speed America, two minute Cosmonauts. And who has time to download an 8 Meg MP3? Not me, thats for sure. My songs average about 2:02, and the size is generally under two megs. Enjoy.

    Lyrics
    The world keeps spinning around and
    I don't know how it got this way,
    and I don't know what I did today,
    but I think that it's got something to do
    with the way I feel about you
    I don't care about my safety,
    I just want to stop being a

    cosmonaut falling down.

    I'm just a cosmonaut falling down.


    we've been through this before,
    and I'm not sure what you want me to say,
    and I don't know why I feel this way
    but I think I'm learning more about you
    more and more I'm learning how to
    stop being so hurt inside but
    I'm not learning much cause

    I'm a cosmonaut falling down.

    I'm just a cosmonaut falling down.

    The world keeps falling down,
    and I don't know why I feel so great,
    and I don't know how It got this way,
    but I know that I'm not getting older,
    world just seems to get much colder,
    I know I'm not going crazy
    wondering why I stopped being a

    cosmonaut falling down,

    I'm just a cosmonaut falling down.
