Signs of life flash across the screens
Like a light in the darkest seas
A beacon calling to new shores
Hope lives for something so much more
We set a course for this new system
Wondering what they might think of us
Approaching we quietly listen
Will we bring suspicion or trust?
How long have we been gone?
Cast out amongst the void
Relativity shown
Has it all been destroyed?
All of our sensors springing to life
Communications activate
Monitors painting pictures of strife
Signals hailing us from the gate
A hundred years have gone
Lost out amongst the void
Relativity shown
Not all has been destroyed!
Out past the point of no return
In the vast silence we did burn
And from our last triumph we learn
That there's no turning back the clock
That there's nothing to sooth the shock
That there's only one path left to walk
And there's no turning back the clock
Out past the point of no return
In the vast silence we did burn
From our last triumph we still learn
There is no turning back the clock
There is nothing to sooth the shock
That there's only one path left to walk
And there's no turning back the clock
