So far away from home, beyond a distant reach

Faint whispers from the edge, returning piece by piece

A lonely point of light, captured in a final glance

A solitary hint of life, discovered if by chance

God creators, dream destroyers

Spineless cowards and fearless warriors

Hopeful children, mothers and fathers

Our blood-filled rivers fueled by hate

We worship heroes, kings and saints

But who's out there to save us from ourselves?

All you will ever know, all life that ever was

All you despise or love, living out their lives

This isolated speck, hurling through the cosmic dark

Would seem to go astray if we were washed away

God creators, dream destroyers

Knowledge seekers and bold explorers

Hopeful children, mothers and fathers

All on this place we call our home

Adrift in space, we're on our own

But who's out there to save us from ourselves?
