10,000 Light Years From Home

The day is here, it's crystal clear
That we're the chosen ones
Gather at dawn to bid farewell
To the revolution's sons

Rumbling and roaring and burning
The countdown has begun, there's no returning
Ignition, liftoff, systems go
Next stop Eden, on with the show tonight

Dark signs, rewind, crashing through the skies
Ten thousand light years from home
We struggle to find the life we left behind
Ten thousand light years from home

Seven, six, five, four, three, two, one, Alpha Engaged

We've earned the right to take this flight
To the Promised Land
Our kingdom come, his will be done
Death to the common man

Twisting and turning and falling
Transmission has ended, there's no way of calling
Mayday, mayday, SOS
Tell your gods we learned our lesson, yeah

Dark signs, rewind, crashing through the skies
Ten thousand light years from home
Shot down in flames, no sign of life remains
Ten thousand light years from home

This is no Utopia
We have been deceived
Humanity not vanity
Our karma's been received, yeah

Mayday, mayday, SOS
Tell your gods we learned our lesson well

Dark signs, rewind, crashing through the skies
Ten thousand light years from home
We struggle to find, the life we left behind
Ten thousand light years from home (away from home)

Dark signs, rewind, crashing through the skies
Ten thousand light years from home
Shot down in flames, no sign of life remains
Ten thousand light years from home
