Lyrics

The ship lies quiet and calm While the troops disappear in its hull They know they are the ones Who must see that the mission is done On the journey to a distant world They will face all dangers To guide the human cosmic freight Sheltered through the time Farewell to the burning earth We won't die young Mothers, fathers, everyone Children of the sun Farewell to a dying home We won't die young Striving for new shores ahead All, all for one Ancestors in old graves They have all long been overgrown And now the time has come To accept our best time has gone On our journey to a distant world We will face the danger We know we are the cosmic race We travel through the space Farewell to the burning earth We won't die young Mothers, fathers, everyone Children of the sun Farewell to a dying home We won't die young Striving for new shores ahead All, all for one It was all up to you You've had your chances But just unlimited greed Has been in your glances You killed red roses The black ones too Although you owned the code Your defeat came true On our journey to a distant world We will face the danger We know we are the cosmic race We travel through the space Farewell to the burning earth We won't die young Mothers, fathers, everyone Children of the sun Farewell to a dying home We won't die young Striving for new shores ahead All, all for one
