lyrics

I see raised hands with questions for me
About our amazing journey
Please tell us what did you see?
Is there an ending, maybe
But we passed right through at light speed
Four thousand five hundred three

We ran out of luck traveling through spaceless seas
But time responds to you as time responds to me
And I just can't believe what I've seen

Four thousand five hundred three
And every stop in between
Please tell us what does it mean
Not everybody returned and no solid lessons were learned
And none of your respect was earned

We fell out of touch fumbling through history
But time belongs to you as time belongs to me
And I just can't believe what I've seen

Not everybody returned and no solid lessons were learned
And none of your respect was earned

(End Vocal 1)
After an accident killed most our crewman
We went back to change it and save lives from ruin
Yeah were trying to fix it but we just keep screwing it up
Now were stuck and each time a little bit nearer
And each time our faliure is clearer
Yeah we just keep missing the mark

(End Vocal 2)
We crossed our fingers
We could use that witch had caused this collapse
But had no idea, no maps no legend
By the seat of our pants we learned fast
We were missing the mark
