Корабель дурнів - Ship of Fools
The Intergalactic High Court proclaims that the accused #53887
Is found guilty of all charges, that is: leaving 10 billion
Representatives of humankind on the deadly unstable planet
Of Earth, spending money on building and equipping
Unnecessarily expensive arks, illicit occupation of 13 exoplanets
Provoking ecological disasters on the named planets via
Uncontrolled terraforming, condemning 7 thousand generations
Of humans to aimless wandering in the desert of outer space
Looking for a new home which they will never find since they
Have destroyed their only real home themselves
You had a noble goal: to reach the top
To save the humankind and the paths of human ideas
What was leading you? The desire for distant suns' halo?
You wanted to conquer it, but the light leaked out
You wanted to escape the chaos, but chaos is what you are
What you need is on Earth and not in the space mist
Six cubic meters of the ground are your home and your world
And the endless sky, the free sky, the limitless way up
Thousands of worlds, discoveries, and lightyears
You didn't manage to create the world you desired
These are the mathematics of the colonizers
You add something, you subtract something
You lose the meaning of life
You thought it was yours to take – but it just exists
Spoiled god, some smog is all he left behind
He thought he'd swallow everything, but felt only this endless fury
The world survived and doomed you to eke out an existence
In the stone heart of the Earth
We created our gods by ourselves
They walked by themselves to the seashore
To guard their sons' sleep
But we, the wicked children of the merciless sea
Lost what it gave us
All we leave behind is the speechless rock
May it remember those who are sinking
In the stone heart of the Earth
Lived the good spirit that fed us
He drank what the sky spilled as rain
And slept in the mighty roots of palm trees
All that is left of those forests
Is this volcanic plain
The good spirit was washed into the sea
We brought our ship to a wreck
We, the wicked children of the merciless sea
Lost what it gave us
All we leave behind is the speechless rock
May it remember those who are sinking
Is found guilty of all charges, that is: leaving 10 billion
Representatives of humankind on the deadly unstable planet
Of Earth, spending money on building and equipping
Unnecessarily expensive arks, illicit occupation of 13 exoplanets
Provoking ecological disasters on the named planets via
Uncontrolled terraforming, condemning 7 thousand generations
Of humans to aimless wandering in the desert of outer space
Looking for a new home which they will never find since they
Have destroyed their only real home themselves
