Future Impact Songtext
von Fennez Marson

The eternal flame
Is killing us and time is running
Through our fingers we watch
As our wooden lungs burn down
Keep your eyes on the price
No matter what the cost is
This place will fall apart
No running, no help, no hiding

Major Tom, it′s not you who's lost out there
We′re out of fuel and there is no one else to blame
Pushed kids' hopes off the ledge
Pushed ourselves on the edge
The great filter's still up ahead


We are leaving, we are leaving
We all lived in a world that had a zillion shapes
We are leaving, we are leaving
We are leaving, forgetting about borders and states
Come on, you gotta be amazed
By the blindness all around this place
We are living, we are living
We are living or dying the American way

Left or right?
We have no choice but to go up
She knows, he knows, they know
Future Impact
Can we make it to another star?
Will we be part of the big star war?
Can we pave the way
For a human future?
Working on a way to evade the inevitable
Nothing left down here to repair the irreparable
Can we take a second to get our heads straight?
The time, it has come, the clock, it is ticking
We have to keep pushing science to the limit
The time, it has come, a final push to the
Finish line we′ll launch into the void


Rocket man, it′s not you who's lost out there
We′re out of fuel and there is no one else to blame
Pushed kids' hopes off the ledge
Pushed ourselves on the edge
The great filter′s still up ahead

We are leaving, we are leaving
We all lived in a world that had a zillion shapes
We are leaving, we are leaving
We are leaving, forgetting about borders and states
Come on, you gotta be amazed
By the blindness all around this place
We are living, we are living
We are living or dying the American

And when the whole damn universe
Has been the host of our dance
We will find another one
'cause this superior dance will last
Until it never ends

We are leaving, we are leaving
We all lived in a world that had a zillion shapes
We are leaving, we are leaving
We are leaving, forgetting about borders and states
Come on, you gotta be amazed
By the blindness all around this place
We are living, we are living
We are living or dying the American way
