Earthrise

One step back Take two leaps forward And with bated breath we wait For Generation X to fade Embracing the emancipation How will history remember A masterpiece chiselled to dirt? Collapsing pillars of the Earth A march of progress in reverse Blood fills my lifeless heart Eyes flicker in the dark Two steps back One leap forward You let your shackles fall with grace Still counting on that wish you made To reach out far beyond the pale How I dream to feel alive Bestow upon these vital signs The Lunar path dictates the tide Will we ever reach the shoreline? How do we answer to the gods Among the men creating us? As I inhale the hurricane I touch the void and feel no pain Resolve to carry on Another life awaits beyond the horizon Evolve and we'll ensure our survival We are the revolution Resolve to carry on Another life awaits beyond the horizon Evolve and we'll (Keep reaching through horizons) Ensure our survival (To leave our past behind us) We are the revolution (We turn towards the Earthrise)
