Colony Video (MV)

We wake from slumber
The end of hibernation
At last we're animate
We're free from dreamless sleep
Now sullen eyes
See what no man has seen
A bright blue surface
Stares back from glowing screens
Prepare the vessel for orbit
The sphere is approaching fast
Set course for descent through the atmosphere
Below waits our home to be
The pilgrims have reached their final destination
Their journey through darkness is at long last over
But the real quest still remains of establishing a colony
A settlement securing the future of our species
Our ark descends
Break into virgin land
The ship is trembling
The point of no return
A deafening roar
As we burst through the clouds
Then stillness comes
The craft at once stands still
The pilgrims now look at each other
Surprised that the hull is intact
In silence they gather the courage
Courage to release the hatch
The pilgrims have reached their final destination
Their journey through darkness is at long last over
But the real quest still remains of establishing a colony
A settlement securing the future of our species
