Speed of Light
Our world is a terrible place
There must be something better in space
Or is just the time in which we live
that has nothing good to give
Let's grab a ship and blast away
because I don't want to die here, I don't want to stay
When I see the stars above I know that I'm alive
We're going so fast
we're leaving our past
at the speed of light
We'll be young when you are dead
the future lies ahead
at the speed of light
Our goal is to find a new home
There is a chance: we are not alone
But if there is nothing to be found
plan B/ß/2 is to turn around
A year to us is a hundred to you
When we're back everything will be new
When I see the stars above I know that I'm alive
I don't care what happens to me, because I know I'll survive
We're going so fast
we're leaving our past
at the speed of light
We'll be young when you are dead
the future lies ahead
at the speed of light
There must be something better in space
Or is just the time in which we live
that has nothing good to give
Let's grab a ship and blast away
because I don't want to die here, I don't want to stay
When I see the stars above I know that I'm alive
We're going so fast
we're leaving our past
at the speed of light
We'll be young when you are dead
the future lies ahead
at the speed of light
Our goal is to find a new home
There is a chance: we are not alone
But if there is nothing to be found
plan B/ß/2 is to turn around
A year to us is a hundred to you
When we're back everything will be new
When I see the stars above I know that I'm alive
I don't care what happens to me, because I know I'll survive
We're going so fast
we're leaving our past
at the speed of light
We'll be young when you are dead
the future lies ahead
at the speed of light
