  • When I take off, well, I know I’m gonna be

    I’m gonna be the drone who takes off towards you

    When I blow up, yeah, I know I’m gonna be

    I’m gonna be the drone who blows along with you

    If I get jammed, well, I know I’m gonna be

    I’m gonna be the drone who gets jammed next to you

    And if I reach ya, yeah, I know I’m gonna be

    I’m gonna be the drone who’s reaching down to you

    [Chorus]

    But I would fly six hundred miles

    And I would fly four hundred more

    Just to be the drone who flew a thousand

    Miles to fall down on your door





  • You have a point, buuut: photons don’t experience time or distance. Leaving the star and hitting the bull’s eye happen in the same instant for them, no matter how many billions of light years apart they are. From the point of view of the photon, the bull’s eye is touching that star in that other galaxy. For just that single instant in time.
