Scale of the Universe

Humanity's interest in heaven has been universal and enduring

We are driven to explore the unknown, discover new worlds

Push boundaries of the scientific and technical limits

What's out there? What will be found?

The science and dreams of man to explore

We have it inside, oh, deep in our core

Our telescopes and satellites

Observe the night, meteorites

The scale of the universe

Is too big for our minds to nurse

Can't really be alone

The distance to the unknown

We look up to the sky and imagine gods

That space could be ours, oh, what were the odds?

The galaxies out of our sight

We try to reach what shines so bright

The scale of the universe

Is too big for our minds to nurse

Can't really be alone

The distance to the unknown

The scale of the universe

Is too big for our minds to nurse

Can't really be alone

The distance to the unknown

The scale of the universe

One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind
