Speed of Light

                                  Our world is a terrible place 

There must be something better in space 

Or is just the time in which we live 

That has nothing good to give 

Let's grab a ship and blast away 

Because I don't want to die here, I don't want to stay 



When I see the stars above I know that I'm alive 

We're going so fast 

We're leaving our past 

At the speed of light 

We'll be young when you are dead 

The future lies ahead 

At the speed of light 

Our goal is to find a new home 

There is a chance: we are not alone 

But if there is nothing to be found 

Plan B is to turn around 

A year to us is a hundred to you 

When we're back everything will be new 



When I see the stars above I know that I'm alive 

I don't care what happens to me, because I know I'll survive 

We're going so fast 

We're leaving our past 

At the speed of light 

We'll be young when you are dead 

The future lies ahead 

At the speed of light
