Space is timeless, no need to rush and no need to wait
You can finally take off that bearing weight.

Space is timeless.

In space there are no ticking time bombs
And no more sweaty palms
For there are no due dates and no deadlines
And that feeling is just fine.
No more fighting with Father Time
You can just sit and listen to the chime

The chime of silence.
The feeling of confidence.
