Lyrics (unofficial)

I was born with a moon and a horn
I survived despite the righteous warning
I was taken from my mountain
Then I was forsaken
I was jumped with my elegant space pump
I believe it was made of Argent
I was ripped from my shell
And I fumble then I tripped

Going back to galaxy
Going back to galaxy

She came to me through a dream frame
I named her Dawn of Blame
I was sliced from my head
And it was nasty and it was nice
Unraveled a new way to travel
An unparalleled achievement
I was blown from my land
I don't understand
No I don't understand

Going back to galaxy
Going back to galaxy

I said Andromeda
Andromeda
I said
I said Andromeda
I said Andromeda
Don't talk
Don't talk
I said Andromeda
I said Andromeda
Don't talk
Don't talk

The stranger and the common man
Got you in their sights
On any other night
Andromeda

The mortal was a god
Oh Andromeda
On any other night

Reach for the morning
Reach for the sun
And bring everyone

When you look up in the skies
When you look into my eyes
How's this for size
Andromeda

??? [8:08]
Oh Andromeda
On any other night

Reach for the morning
Reach for the sun
Reach the furthest shore of more than you wanted
And get back some sun
And bring everyone

[Woman's voice]
Our position in our galaxy, which would be like maybe a third of the way out here...
We're moving at half a million miles an hour around the center of our galaxy.
I got interested in astronomy by watching the stars as they moved outside my window.
I had a window that faced north, I had a bed under the window,
  and I could see during the night that the stars would change their positions.
And that's really what got me interested in astronomy.
So I guess I was always interested in how things moved.

[First man's voice]
You should keep an eye on this part of The Milky Way, towards the center of our galaxy.
Some strange things are happening there.

[Second man's voice]
...by some type of device, which is ahead of us, far ahead of us,
  it is probably controlled by a highly advanced, superior civilization.
Now this is a conclusion which I personally have stated,
  and sure enough some members of our board of governors and advisors,
  not all of them, but these were [3:56] interplanetary spaceships.
