Lirik:

[Verse 1]

Look beyond the Earth, heading set for the stars

Interplanetary, some are near, some are far

Terraform a new world, survival for mankind

Options but a few, we are running out of time

Should you climb aboard

A voyage, the first of its kind

Ready to explore

All that you've known left behind

[Chorus 1]

Our Holy Grail

Now redefined!

Our purpose, a thread

Weaving through time!

Now with the means to expand

Life beyond here

Digital man

Alien, changed forever!

New found world in the stars!

[Verse 2]

Understand the meaning

Certain we'll extend the scale of consciousness

Woman, child and man!

Multi planet species out amongst the stars

Not stuck in and around

Who and what we are

Time to climb aboard!

Countdown to takeoff on time

Systems are online! (Five, four, three, two)

Farewell to all humankind (One)

[Chorus 2]

Our Holy Grail

Clearly defined!

Our purpose, a thread

Weaving through time!

Now with the means to expand

Life beyond here

Digital man

Alien, changed forever!

New found world, here we are!

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus 3]

Our Holy Grail

Clearly defined!

Our purpose, a thread

Weaving through time!

Now with the means to expand

Our Holy Grail

Read between the lines!

One purpose, one thread

Weaving through time!

Now with the means to expand!

[Outro]

I am the alien

Out here in the stars

We'll search 'til we find!

No matter how far

A far better world

For all human race

And beyond!
