Red Planet Lyrics

It's been almost 20 years
on the red planet
a place where there are no tears
it is just water floating
no they're not quite emoting

I dream of the other days
of the times I held you
left in an autumn blaze
now I idle in bubbles
just collecting the rubble

Well I waited for you out here
but that was just delusional
and I've painted all these pictures
of Earth but that's unusual
unusual to you

Met at a seminar
shared the same table
brushed by you at the bar
didn't match your description
it soon became my prescription

I think of the junipers
in the spring going
far along the Jupiter
It doesn't draw a reaction
temporary distraction

And I waited for you out here
but that may be delusional
and I painted all these pictures
of Earth but that's unusual
unusual to you

And I waited for forever
and that was just delusional
So I painted all these pictures of Earth
but that's unusual
unusual, unusual
to you

The line with [???] should be: "brushed by you[ at the bar]"

Am I allowed to fix this?
