[Verse 1] In the silent expanse where stars softly gleam, A lone voyager drifts, lost in endless dream, Encased in a pod with systems laid bare, A fragile cocoon in the void's chilling glare. The life support hums a faltering tune, Its rhythm now broken, like a waning moon. Once vibrant screens flicker, shadows they cast, Telling tales of a future now past. A Future now passed. Future is now past. [Chorus 2] Awake from slumber, eyes wide in the dark, A heart beating fast, ignites the first spark. The universe stretches, wide and immense, A tapestry woven, unfathomably dense. "What fate befalls me?" the drifter cries, With only the stars to echo his sighs. A whispering void, a celestial sea, Holds secrets and stories of eternity. Eter nity [Verse 3] Through meteor showers and cosmic debris, The pod sails onward, wild and free. Planets like marbles, spin in their dance, A celestial waltz in an endless expanse. Hope clings like frost on the pod's weary hull, In a cosmos indifferent, beautiful and dull. Memories of Earth, of laughter and light, Are companions to the traveler in the night. [Chorus 4] Loneliness echoes, a haunting refrain, Yet the stars, they whisper, soft and arcane. "You're not alone," their twinkling seems to say, "We are the guardians guiding your way." The drifter listens, heart open wide, Finding solace in the stellar tide. In the silence of space, a new strength is found, Amidst the void, where silence is sound. [Verse 5] A beacon of hope, a distant light glows, Promising refuge from the cosmos' throes. A planet, a haven, with skies azure, Beckons the traveler, offering cure. With a final burst of the pod’s dying breath, The drifter descends, escaping the death. On new ground he lands, with a heart full of grace, A starbound survivor in an alien place. [Bridge] Under alien skies, he stands anew, With a spirit reborn, and a broader view. The past now a tale spun by celestial hands, A saga of survival on foreign lands. [Solo] [Final Chorus] The drifter looks up, with a knowing smile, At the vast universe, stretching mile upon mile. A testament to the journey, the struggle, the strife, An epic odyssey, the voyage of life. [Outro]
