The Sights (Live at Wembley)

Lyrics

[Refrain: Rou Reynolds, with Chris Batten] Are you staying awake for the lift off tonight? You'll never believe the sights tonight The sights tonight, the sights Are you staying awake for the lift off tonight? You'll never believe the sights tonight [Verse 1: Rou Reynolds, with Chris Batten] Mr. Magpie, you got distracted by the gleam of the diamonds As you flew by But their dull glint does not impress When there's a billion stars in the sky I sit, gripping my pen like a bread knife As I write I'm leaving this Earth for the stars, tonight And now I'm running to board the flight [Pre-Chorus: Rou Reynolds, Chris Batten, with Chris Batten] (Oh, oh, oh) Now I boldly go (Oh, oh, oh, oh) Into the great unknown (Oh, oh, oh, oh) And like Jean-Jacques Rousseau (Oh, oh, oh, oh) I give you my mind to be blown (Oh, oh, oh) Now I boldly go (Oh, oh, oh, oh) Into the great unknown (Oh, oh, oh, oh) Like Marcus Cicero (Oh, oh, oh) While there's life, there's hope (Oh, oh, oh) [Chorus: Rou Reynolds, with Chris Batten] I'm searching far and wide to find a planet to orbit Far and wide, I wanna scan and explore it Far and wide, you're my new planet to orbit So fire up the rockets [Refrain: Rou Reynolds] Are you staying awake for the lift off tonight? You'll never believe the sights tonight The sights tonight, the sights Are you staying awake for the lift off tonight? You'll never believe the sights tonight The sights tonight, the sights [Pre-Chorus: Rou Reynolds, Chris Batten, with Chris Batten] (Oh, oh, oh) Now I boldly go (Oh, oh, oh, oh) Into the great unknown (Oh, oh, oh, oh) And like Jean-Jacques Rousseau (Oh, oh, oh, oh) I give you my mind to be blown (Oh, oh, oh) Now I boldly go (Oh, oh, oh, oh) Into the great unknown (Oh, oh, oh, oh) Like Marcus Cicero (Oh, oh, oh) While there's life, there's hope (Oh, oh, oh) [Chorus: Rou Reynolds, with Chris Batten] I'm searching far and wide to find a planet to orbit Far and wide, I wanna scan and explore it Far and wide, you're my new planet to orbit So fire up the rockets [Bridge: Rou Reynolds] It's over now And I'm a little bit petrified Of what's to come Yeah, my head's a bit stir-fried It's over now And I'm a little unqualified But fire up the rockets [Pre-Chorus: Rou Reynolds] I'm searching [Chorus: Rou Reynolds, with Chris Batten] Far and wide to find a planet to orbit Far and wide, I wanna scan and explore it Far and wide, you're my new planet to orbit So fire up the rockets
