Colony
We pushed our boats into the wetlands
And placed our feet upon the sands
We built our dwellings on the hillside
And sowed our seeds upon the land
Who knows where we're going
Only what we've left behind
We cast our nets into the rivers
And on their bounty we have fed
We spread into the ancient forest
And on it's thorns our hands have bled
Who knows where we're going
Only what we've left behind
We sent machines into the grasslands
Pushed on by progress over time
We laid the rails and carved the mountains
We built our concrete to the sky
Who knows where we're going
Only what we've left behind
These are special times
We sent our message to the cosmos
And push on further into space
And on the solar winds we set our sails
To find the secrets the heavens possess
Who knows where we're going
Only what we've left behind
These are special times
And placed our feet upon the sands
We built our dwellings on the hillside
And sowed our seeds upon the land
Who knows where we're going
Only what we've left behind
We cast our nets into the rivers
And on their bounty we have fed
We spread into the ancient forest
And on it's thorns our hands have bled
Who knows where we're going
Only what we've left behind
We sent machines into the grasslands
Pushed on by progress over time
We laid the rails and carved the mountains
We built our concrete to the sky
Who knows where we're going
Only what we've left behind
These are special times
We sent our message to the cosmos
And push on further into space
And on the solar winds we set our sails
To find the secrets the heavens possess
Who knows where we're going
Only what we've left behind
These are special times
