Earth That Was
Mother Earth couldn't take no more
Sucked dry by humanity
In the end she lost a fight
She was never going to win
We set out for distant shores
Far across our galaxy
We're taking flight into the night
To the planets on the rim
A fire in the darkness
Far away from the Earth that Was
A quest for freedom in the 'verse
Seeking refuge from the earth
A fire in the darkness
A bright light on the edge of space
A desperate need to find our place
In the emptiness of space
Out here on the fringe of space
the outskirts of society
we're suffering the aftermath
of a cataclysmic war
Cast out by the human race
nine outlaw pioneers
making life in the outer worlds
running from the law
A fire in the darkness
far away from the Earth that Was
a quest for freedom in the 'verse
Seeking refuge from the earth
A fire in the darkness
a bright light on the edge of space
a desperate need to find our place
in the emptiness of space
I see a fire in the darkness
a ray of hope in a black forbidding night
I see a fire in the darkness
a spark of life in a cold and empty sky
A fire in the darkness
far away from the Earth that Was
a quest for freedom in the 'verse
Seeking refuge from the earth
A fire in the darkness
a bright light on the edge of space
a desperate need to find our place
in the emptiness of space
A fire in the darkness
far away from the Earth that Was
a quest for freedom in the 'verse
Seeking refuge from the earth
I see the fire
a bright light on the edge of space
a desperate need to find our place
in the emptiness of space
Sucked dry by humanity
In the end she lost a fight
She was never going to win
We set out for distant shores
Far across our galaxy
We're taking flight into the night
To the planets on the rim
A fire in the darkness
Far away from the Earth that Was
A quest for freedom in the 'verse
Seeking refuge from the earth
A fire in the darkness
A bright light on the edge of space
A desperate need to find our place
In the emptiness of space
Out here on the fringe of space
the outskirts of society
we're suffering the aftermath
of a cataclysmic war
Cast out by the human race
nine outlaw pioneers
making life in the outer worlds
running from the law
A fire in the darkness
far away from the Earth that Was
a quest for freedom in the 'verse
Seeking refuge from the earth
A fire in the darkness
a bright light on the edge of space
a desperate need to find our place
in the emptiness of space
I see a fire in the darkness
a ray of hope in a black forbidding night
I see a fire in the darkness
a spark of life in a cold and empty sky
A fire in the darkness
far away from the Earth that Was
a quest for freedom in the 'verse
Seeking refuge from the earth
A fire in the darkness
a bright light on the edge of space
a desperate need to find our place
in the emptiness of space
A fire in the darkness
far away from the Earth that Was
a quest for freedom in the 'verse
Seeking refuge from the earth
I see the fire
a bright light on the edge of space
a desperate need to find our place
in the emptiness of space
