Standing before you now
Reaching for the stars
What are we doing here
On tainted ground?
We need to be lifted up
To be swept away
To leave this place for good
Maybe someday we'll return to see the change
(To see the change)
Down on this planet we call home
We are trapped in stasis
Down in this world we call our own
We are locked in stasis
Standing before you now
And I'm trying to explain
That we've grown too attached to the soil on which we stand
What if this isn't our true place?
What if we were made for more?
There is something out of place down here
They call it an illusion
I call it evolution
Would be a revolution if we left the earth behind
