"MOSS (performed by 'The X + I'): Hosting a live and nervy press conference, 'The X + I' publicly discount the mass exodus of their committed ships; where certainly the entire populace of the planet below recognizes the floating stars as unique symbols of beauty and oppression. Accordingly, to 'The X + I', this unprecedented event is nothing more than a 'systems error', and bears no relation to Ruby's impromptu broadcast. Which painting past the heady control of 'The X + I' has gone far and wide into every corner of the world." (ATUM story notes)

You didn't see what you saw
You didn't hear what you heard
You didn't wish what you'd want
You didn't feel where you hurt
Yeah, yeah
It's always
Or never know
Yes, yes
It's always or never know
Or never know

You didn't seek what you sought
You didn't fear what we've learnt
You didn't dare where we've stepped
You didn't claw in the dirt
Moving heaven and hurt
Dirt, dirt
Moving heaven and earth
Hurt, hurt

No voiceless voices
No soulless souls
So, these starz have flown
As some error within
Every system blown to pieces

You didn't seek what you sought
You didn't fear what we've learnt
You didn't dare where we've stepped
You didn't claw in the dirt
Moving heaven and hurt
Dirt, dirt
Moving heaven and earth
Hurt, hurt
Hurt
