Boundless Rocketeers

I am feeling generous this evening, not to mention suffering from a bit of insomnia. Here is one last song to check out, "Boundless Rocketeers" by audio/rocketry, a punk-folk band from the Edmonton area. A much more inspirational song than the last 3eb track I posted, audio/rocketry really is something special.
My favorite line from this track is: "the best way to overcome fears, you said / is to lift-off and dance with them." Thanks to a great friend of mine, I recently discovered these guys. If you ever hear of them visiting a local pub in your town, I recommend you do whatever it takes to get down there to see them. They are well worth your time.

Before reading the lyrics, make sure you follow the link and get the song rolling along. Enjoy!

Boundless Rocketeers by audio/rocketry
The city lights
Steal and hide
The illumination from
Our skyline

Let's steal 'em back
Every star intact
We'll retrace the escape
We've outlined

Because we're both in this together
For now, here, and forever
Until the moon breaks its last quarter

Grab ahold of my hand
And squeeze it tightly my friend
The sky has no boundaries, no order

From left to right, the coast is clear
Onward to anywhere but here
As your partner have nothing to fear
We are the boundless rocketeers

Point A is set
Point B is undefined
As is the path we'll travel
Between as the connecting line

I don't need to know it right now
Just need to get above the ground
The fuse has long since been lit
And we've exceeded the countdown

Later in air you shared your anxiety
Of heights while staring far beneath
The best way to overcome fears you said
Is to lift-off and dance with them

We're both in this together
For now, here, and forever
Until the moon breaks its last quarter  
Grab ahold of my hand
And squeeze it tightly my friend
The sky has no boundaries, no order 
From left to right, the coast is clear
Onward to anywhere but here
As your partner have nothing to fear
We are the boundless rocketeers  
When our backsides are to the earth
Our eyes are locked in with the low lit stars
Under a blanket of sky we are wrapped
Comfortably no matter where we are

Friendship is taking flight
Amongst the northern lights
Across the atmosphere
We are the burning meteorites

And if this fuel expires
We will ride out the fire
We'll never abandon
Each other while crash landing

'Cause we're both in this together
For now, here, and forever
Until the moon breaks its last quarter  
Grab ahold of my hand
And squeeze it tightly my friend
The sky has no boundaries, no order  
From left to right, the coast is clear
Onward to anywhere but here
As your partner have nothing to fear
We are the boundless rocketeers
