Alpha Centauri
packed up the last of our goods
steady the rockets into space
out of orbit from the stars
into the pocket of nothingness
into stasis we sleep as the journey begins
--------------------------------------
we travel,
far away
away from earth.
we make our stay
on alpha centauri
in the great beyond
into the void we cross
scabbard in our hands
---------------------------------------
there we glide into the void of chaos
a twinkle in the eye is our new home
as we sleep for fourteen hundred days
we move at the speed of light
passing through the asteroid field
--------------------------------------
we travel,
far away
away from earth.
we make our stay
on alpha centauri
in the great beyond
into the void we cross
scabbard in our hands
---------------------------------------
we come to within a light year of alpha centauri
we awake from the slumber of four years
our bodies coming out of stasis
the three stars illuminating our faces from
the window's glow
--------------------------------------
we travel,
far away
away from earth.
we make our stay
on alpha centauri
in the great beyond
into the void we cross
scabbard in our hands
