Into The Galaxy Lyrics
Floating to the edge of the world
Floating to the edge of the sea
Floating off the edge of the ocean
Out into the galaxy
Floating to the edge of the world
Floating to the edge of the sea
Floating off the edge of the ocean
Out into the galaxy
An apparition
Of twilight visions
A final mission
Of superstition
Reactivated
Now automated
Appropriated
Investigated
Global tectonics
Psycho robotic
Plasma bionic
Bred supersonic
A new translation
For integration
Your invitation
G.L.O.R.I.A.
Floating to the edge of the world
Floating to the edge of the sea
Floating off the edge of the ocean
Out into the galaxy
Floating to the edge of the world
Floating to the edge of the sea
Floating off the edge of the ocean
Out into the galaxy
Hyper creation
Or reinvention
Love and affection
Gaining attention
United nations
Interrelations
A declaration
Of hypertension
Emerging summits
Pre-emptive plummet
We drop atomic
To shooting comets
The controversial
Ultra commercial
Now universal
G.L.O.R.I.A.
Floating to the edge of the world
Floating to the edge of the sea
Floating off the edge of the ocean
Out into the galaxy
Floating to the edge of the world
Floating to the edge of the sea
Floating off the edge of the ocean
Out into the galaxy
Floating to the edge of the world
Floating to the edge of the sea
Floating off the edge of the ocean
Out into the galaxy
Floating to the edge of the world
Floating to the edge of the sea
Floating off the edge of the ocean
Out into the galaxy
Floating to the edge of the sea
Floating off the edge of the ocean
Out into the galaxy
Floating to the edge of the sea
Floating off the edge of the ocean
Out into the galaxy
Of twilight visions
A final mission
Of superstition
Reactivated
Now automated
Appropriated
Investigated

Floating off the edge of the ocean
Out into the galaxy
Floating to the edge of the sea
Floating off the edge of the ocean
Out into the galaxy

this song is awesome. The verses remind me of talking heads and devo and the chours reminds me of bowie with dancey overtones the whole way along. I think this song is like the beginning of them floating off into 'dystopia'. Everything beginning to end and people are starting to die in the new dystopian world.
War of the worlds-like alien invasion theory: I think this is part 11 (part 1 being 'intro', part 5 being 'scorpius' and part 7 being 'nine lives')
My favourite song of the album dystopia.
About leaving earth for space.
This song is about how people used to believe the world was flat, and sailors believed if you sailed to far in one direction you would fall off the face of the earth.
"Floating to the edge of the world Floating to the edge of the sea Floating off the edge of the ocean Out into the galaxy"
This is obviously a continuation of the Armageddon theme contained in other songs on the album. But who is G.L.O.R.I.A.? And why is her (or its) name spelled out? Does G.L.O.R.I.A. stand for something else?
@noirling it's a sampling of the lyrics to Gloria by Them featuring early Van Morrison which also, in like fashion, spells out the name G.L.O.R.I.A. in the song's chorus. I believe that Midnight Juggernauts throw the line in as a sort of quirky homage to that song and Van Morrison, and to deflect the listener from the theme instilled in the rest of the verses' lyrics. Like cleansing the palate with sorbet between tasting the different courses within, and throughout the meal.

it's probably a reference to Van Morrisson's song G.L.O.R.I.A.
I think it's about humans screwing up the world (so leaving it)
I think the gloria part isn't that significant. Since the whole song is about starting a new life off Earth since it's destruction, it's asking you to join in the glory of being part of the new life.
THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL - NOT WAR OF THE WORLDS!!!
