ZAPIENS - Only Home (Visualizer)
Lyrics:
Just look down
I’m right here
You keep looking up
You don’t hear
Don’t loose ground
Don’t let your fear
Lock you up
In paralyzing despair
Lasst mich nicht allein
Don’t leave me alone
I’m your only home
Lasst mich nicht allein
We say goodbye to the only home we’ve ever known
We couldn’t fight all the battles we, ourselves, began
The ship is launched and we stare in awe with open mouths
Until we realize it won’t come back to pick us up
In our despair we destroy the ramp and burn it down
Then we head home to the ones we love and care about
Our kids, they ask: can’t we try to save what’s left of A?
Honestly, Planet B never looked that promising to me
While we debate what to do and how we could survive
The kids roll up their sleeves, cleaning up the mess we left behind
We need to learn our new place in this collapsed world
Don’t reach for the stars! Our future is on Planet Earth!
Lasst mich nicht allein
Don’t leave me alone
I’m your only home
Just look down
I’m right here
You keep looking up
You don’t hear
Don’t loose ground
Don’t let your fear
Lock you up
In paralyzing despair
Does the human race have a future on Mars? For us and the next hundred generations the answer is: no. Yet there are many people working on this questionable dream. We are better off putting the effort, money and resources into keeping Planet Earth healthy and livable. Because for for a very very long time it will be our only home.
