Temperance - The Restless Ride lyrics

Signals are clear we have to go Leaving the ground of and emptied earth It’s too hard to admit we’re wrong We have to leave it now The sky is the limit of our greedy race A human swarm, a desperate shot The last chance to live on Now reach out for the starry dome You will know the meaning of those lights above After all, we are lightspeed trails Chasing a distant sun Heading to what lies deep in the unknown No, we cleave an endless sea of night Every single second, every scar upon our flesh Through the void and among the stars We try to sow our seeds to gain a second chance Looking back to our lone and blue dot Heading for a new place to call home Silent shades around cheering our restless ride Why have we never thought to save our lives? We’ve lived too much beyond our means Our sons will blame us for what we’ve done To the blue j**el we’ve left behind Without a shepherd to guide our way To achieve the world that they deserve Saviours, we’ve waited a thousands years Under a veil of dust and broken hopes Groping into our deepest dark Dazed amid mires and stars The curtain has fallen on our previous crimes A childish game without a prize We have to leave and say goodbye Pollution, delusion and a deadly famine d**hbringers will share war Dry rivers and boiling oceans It’s only our fault, redemption lies ahead Into the night… Black holes, cosmic graves wait To split our souls in twain Breaking veils of fire, over come fears We’re forever gone! Now look at the sky once more You will know the meaning of those lights above Out of sight, the fading stairways chasing a distant sun Heading to what lies in the dark
