Our is painted across the sky In our we learn to fly No to hold us No one to save us tomorrow
away, beyond the reach of anyone Far beyond the of everyone No to follow A in the dark anybody know? Sailing away, beyond the of anyone Far beyond the of everyone High from the I see the pain anybody care?
Think for a of all the lives Stripped of their essence before their We to conquer But is there nothing left
Sailing away, beyond the reach of Far beyond the of everyone No to follow A in the dark Does know? Sailing away, beyond the of anyone Far beyond the dreams of High the heavens I see the pain Does care?
"We one collective hope: the Earth. And yet, people remain hopeless, famine and calamity abound. curl themselves into the arms of war; people kill and get killed in the name of else's concept of God. Do we admit that our & behaviors spring from a belief that the world revolves around us? Each fabricated conflict, bomb, airplane, every fictionalized dictator, biased or partisan, and wayward son, are part of the curtains of racial, ethnic, religious, national, and cultural conflicts, and you find the human ego turning the and pulling the levers. When I the orbits of asteroids, comets, and planets, each one a pirouetting in a cosmic ballet, choreographed by the forces of gravity, I see beyond the of humans. I see a universe ever-expanding, with its galaxies embedded within the ever-stretching four-dimensional fabric of space and time. big our world is, our hearts, our minds, our outsize atlases, the universe is even bigger. There are more stars in the universe than grains of on the world's beaches, more stars in the universe than seconds of time that have since Earth formed, more stars than words & sounds ever uttered by all who have ever lived. The day we cease the exploration of the cosmos is the day we the continuing of our species. In that bleak world, arms-bearing, resource-hungry people & would be prone to act on their low-contracted prejudices, and have seen the last gasp of human enlightenment. Until the rise of a visionary new culture that once again embraces the perspective; a perspective in which we are one, fitting neither nor below, but within."
