[Verse 1]
Look beyond the Earth, heading set for the stars
Interplanetary, some are near, some are far
Terraform a new world, survival for mankind
Options but a few, we are running out of time
Should you climb aboard
A voyage, the first of its kind
Ready to explore
All that you've known left behind
[Chorus 1]
Our Holy Grail
Now redefined!
Our purpose, a thread
Weaving through time!
Now with the means to expand
Life beyond here
Digital man
Alien, changed forever!
New found world in the stars!
[Verse 2]
Understand the meaning
Certain we'll extend the scale of consciousness
Woman, child and man!
Multi planet species out amongst the stars
Not stuck in and around
Who and what we are
Time to climb aboard!
Countdown to takeoff on time
Systems are online! (Five, four, three, two)
Farewell to all humankind (One)
[Chorus 2]
Our Holy Grail
Clearly defined!
Our purpose, a thread
Weaving through time!
Now with the means to expand
Life beyond here
Digital man
Alien, changed forever!
New found world, here we are!
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus 3]
Our Holy Grail
Clearly defined!
Our purpose, a thread
Weaving through time!
Now with the means to expand
Our Holy Grail
Read between the lines!
One purpose, one thread
Weaving through time!
Now with the means to expand!
[Outro]
I am the alien
Out here in the stars
We'll search 'til we find!
No matter how far
A far better world
For all human race
And beyond!
