Far Beyond and Further Lyrics

Far beyond the Earth
Far beyond and further

ODESSA;
Our world falling to pieces
We need to search for a brand-new home

LILLIAN;
Making observations from Virgo constellation

ODESSA;
Find rescue
Escape this Earth blue
What else is there to do?
We consumed too much

LILLIAN;
Making observations from Virgo constellations

CHOIR;
Far beyond and further

LILLIAN;
What about this world under or feet,
the children running in the flowering field?
And what about the times we woke up at sunrise to see the ocean bathe in gold?

ODESSA, AVIATOR & CHOIR;
We are searching another cradle some light years alway
Not far away, in our Milky Way
We're searching another cradle some light years away
Let's travel on and on, and on, and on
Reach for the stars

LILLIAN;
It is so funny
We're constantly running
To seek and destroy
To exploit 'til there's nothing
I find it suspicious
And rather ridiculous
How greed is prevailing
We should be waking up soon

ODESSA, AVIATOR & CHOIR;
Searching another cradle some light years alway
And further away, beyond Milky Way
We're searching another cradle some light years away
Let's travel on and on, and on, and on
Reach for the stars

THE AVIATOR;
"So, to my mind, humanity has spent the lastbthousand of years inventing culture, trying to understand where the garden we were given came from.
And somehow the more we searched for that meaning, the more we took away from that garden.
And that goes back to space travel, and the price of every launch, as the destruction and pollution of our environment.
Which is why we have to understand the world we live in if we're going to get out of this alive.
We are the universe, given consciousness, made manifest and trying to understand itself.
And when you're up other, looking down on that vulnerable little planet, its limited resources can be used for two things:
The advancement of humankind, or self-destruction."
