Reborn
A planet burning out from the inside
A race of life reinventing the tide
Survival roars its howling call in the wind
The countdown to destruction begins
Technology forces faith to find a way
Scientific endeavours illuminate the dark in new ways
An evolution of man sparks a flame
Planets anew are found
Planets offering mankind a firm ground
Human life exists so far away
Though human means different things in different ways
Heaven found in life remains
Realisation of life forces change
A new kind of human, like us but not in so many ways
A chance discovery is made
This fate of evolution finds a way
To seal the fate of our kind in our place
Earth is the punishment of bad souls
Heaven found faraway shows this so
We live over and over again
On this planet where evil remains
Some find their light in their way
Some find a place there to stay
Most of us will remain here in this place
Suffering living in our ways
Each rebirth is cleansed from the last
But evil in some will last
The earth is human punishment of souls
True heaven exists on planets where we'll never go
There life is the joy of living without pain
No evil exists, no starving, killing, financing. No punishment, no lists.
No one will ever invade
They know our planet by a different name
To us they live in heaven with no pain
To them the earth is hell, our souls are tainted and disgraced.
