An all consuming frontier
Of scientific knowledge
The stars offer seed
For our imagination
The cosmos is sought
A place for wonder
A time for thought
Is where humanity stands
Their dreams subdued
Confused and disturbed
With little that we can learn
Hopeless, exploring
Slave to the ideas and plans
Hoping they'll explain the truth
We are not alive unable to know
Starving to take a free breath
Even if the point is moot
Each day exists already
Every life has worth
Must learn to create hope
To expand our search
Turn it inward
Make our efforts fruitful
Let them finally reveal
All that we need to know
We must do more
Than simply survive
Every living thing
Is born with limited time
Death comes to us all
It is times to invest in life
Or we will all take the fall
