Last Expedition

A great void surrounding, silence escaping, darkness veils our eyes
Feel the heat of a great black flame, way off into distant time

Hear nothing for miles around, as we honor those who've tried
Keep trudging onwards, all hope is fleeting, we are our own allies

This barren earth takes and takes, but gives nothing away
Take just enough to stay the quake, told to give praise for the few we made

Our lungs are heavy, air is thin, cannot let it happen again

A great void withholding, silence withdrawing, light has cleared our eyes
Darkness retreated, we've penetrated, time to collect the prize

This barren earth takes and takes, but gives nothing away
Take just enough to stay the shakes, told to give praise for the few we save

The voyage is long, outlook is grim; cannot let it happen again
It's all gone wrong, all alone, all alone
