Lyrics
So much time has been wasted
Reflection on wasted time, regrets about lost opportunities
Too many years have passed us by
Sense of time passing without achieving significant things
From the moon we went nowhere
Stagnation, lack of progress despite efforts
We mourn the past
Mourning the bygone era, nostalgic about the past
When our souls forgot to fly
Feeling trapped or restrained, unable to explore freely
Blood of the earth, draining to heaven, counting the stars only we can see
Metaphorical imagery depicting a connection between earth's essence and the cosmos, emphasizing a unique perspective
Blood of the earth, rivers are running, what will become of our destiny?
Concern for the future, questioning the consequences of current actions on fate
We don't know what is out there
Uncertainty about the unknown, exploring beyond familiar boundaries
The constellations drifting by
Observing changes or shifts in circumstances, possibly in the environment
When closing in on a new world
Approaching a new opportunity or phase, leaving behind the past
We mourn the past
Similar to line 4, lamenting the loss of what's familiar
When our eyes forgot the sky
Forgetting one's dreams or aspirations
Blood of the earth, draining to heaven, counting the stars only we can see
Reiteration of the connection between earth and the cosmos, emphasizing a personal perspective
Blood of the earth, rivers are running, what will become of our destiny?
Reinforcing concerns about the future and its uncertainty
We're the blood of the earth, we're coming home again
Identification with the earth, a sense of belonging or returning to origins
We're the blood of the earth, we're gonna live again
Hope for rejuvenation or revival, embracing life again
Blood of the earth, draining to heaven, counting the stars only we can see
Repeated metaphorical imagery, emphasizing a personal perspective on earth's significance
Blood of the earth, rivers are running, what will become of our destiny?
Reiteration of concern about the future and its uncertainty
