Lyrics
Cast loose our vessel
Departing from our ship
This is farewell
This marks our goodbye
Set sail for unknown realms
Heading towards unfamiliar territories
A final look and
A last glance
With tearful sight
Seeing with sorrow
The pale blue dot is gone
The view of Earth, a tiny, distant object, disappears
Is it foolishness
Questioning if it's naive
To pray to earthbound gods
Asking for help from gods tied to Earth
To save celestial souls?
Seeking salvation for celestial beings
Now set in motion
Beginning the journey
We're laid to rest
Resting eternally
Sarcophagus of steel
A coffin-like structure made of metal
Preserved through ages
Preserved throughout time
In cryonic state
In a state of suspended animation
Enter the dreamless sleep
Entering a dreamless sleep
The dark engulfs the ark
Darkness envelops the spacecraft
We sail the black vast seas
Navigating vast, empty space between stars
Of interstellar space
Traveling through interstellar space
Is it foolishness
Questioning if it's naive
To pray to earthbound gods
Asking for help from gods tied to Earth
To save celestial souls?
Seeking salvation for celestial beings
Hurling through darkness
Speeding through darkness
Stars passing by
Passing by distant stars
Yet soon the goal is reached
Approaching the destination soon
Across the ocean
Reaching the end of the journey
Land is in sight
Seeing land ahead
At last the slumber stops
Finally waking from the prolonged sleep
