This song and “Glory or Gold” bookend the album.
In the song, the fathers and forefathers of the protagonists have doomed the Earth to a burning, dead wasteland, and these children, now with nowhere left to turn, flee to the stars to hopefully find a better life.
In a meta sense, this song deals w...
[Verse 1]
We left in late midwinter, 2091
A burning bed our fathers made
We tried repairing all the damage they had done
But we were just a little late
We built an ark to keep us safe before the flood
Our vengeful planet we escape
Hands of our children not yet covered in this blood
Hope they don't make the same mistakes
[Chorus]
For our home we destroyed
So we sail onto the void
For an undiscovered system far from here
If the wind takes our sails
If we live to tell the tale
For the end of Mother Earth is drawing near
We are conquering the final frontier
[Verse 2]
Our greed and vanity have brought this final shame
We fanned the flames inside our home
Exiled humanity and all of us to blame
We only hope we're not alone
But who can trust us once they learn why we're adrift
If we can't even trust ourselves?
We are but insects, undeserving of their gifts
We all deserve to burn in hell
[Chorus]
For our home we destroyed
So we sail onto the void
For an undiscovered system far from here
If the wind takes our sails
If we live to tell the tale
For the end of Mother Earth is drawing near
We are conquering the final frontier, yow!
[Bridge]
So we sail to an unknown planet
Heaven knows what we find once we've landed
And pray we don't get lost along the way
To wherever the wind may take us
Lady Luck, just don't forsake us
If we're ready or not, this is our judgement day
[Chorus]
For our home we destroyed
So we sail onto the void
For an undiscovered system far from here
If the wind takes our sails
If we live to tell the tale
For the end of Mother Earth is drawing near
We are conquering the final frontier
For our home we destroyed
So we sail onto the void
For an undiscovered system far from here
If the wind takes our sails
If we live to tell the tale
For the end of Mother Earth is drawing near
We are conquering the final frontier, yow!
