The Farthest Star Songtext

von VNV Nation

The will to greatness clouds the mind, consumes the senses
Veils the signs we each are meant to recognize
Redeeming graces cast aside, enduring notions
Newfound promise that the end will never come
We live in times when all seems lost
But time will come when we'll look back
Upon ourselves and on our failings
Embrace the void even closer still
Erase your doubts as you surrender everything

We possess the power
If this should start to fall apart
To mend divides, to change the world
To reach the farthest star
If we should stay silent.
If fear should win our hearts,
Our light will have long diminished,
Before it reaches the farthest star

Wide awake in a world that sleeps
Enduring thoughts, enduring scenes
The knowledge of what is yet to come
From a time when all seems lost
From a dead man to a world
Without restraint, unafraid and free.

If we fall and break
All the tears in the world
Cannot make us whole again
