Natural resources depleting
We will find a way
To reach distant spheres
Colonize and terraform
Only barrier in the path
Of Man's domination
Over virgin worlds
Man's internal ear
The mind will not tolerate
Drifting on a shard of metal
Amidst infinite emptiness
Loss of cardinal points
Ever expanding vacuum of space
In every direction at once
Will break the human spirit
Nothing left but empty shells
Thin layer of steel
Small pockets of air
Standing between you
And total oblivion
Light years away from Earth
Unquestionably alone
The weakest ones will collapse
Then it'll be your turn
No North
Or South
No Up
Or Down
No sun
Rising
No Moon
Shining
Ever expanding vacuum of space
In every direction at once
Will break the human spirit
Nothing left but empty shells
Thin layer of steel
Small pockets of air
Standing between you
And total oblivion
A fool's dream
Next trials
For a new species
Who will survive
Less than human
Primitive apes
Robbed of their will
And of their brains
Should they reach
The promised land
Distraught and crushed
By the ghastly void
