Single version of The Traveller's Lament from the album The Odyssey of Captain Vivian Ribbons

lyrics

Mission, contact, here we go!

This is not romance, this is survival
None of this is chance, its all a trial
This is when we work beside our idols
This is when we learn to dance with our rivals

Appropriate, unnecessary arrangements
In case we don't come back
In case we don't make it
Where exactly is it we need to be
We keep guessing and asking where will this path lead

Where have we been
Where are we now
Where will we be
(Forgotten in space and time)

How long must we wait
How long will it take
For you to believe
(Will my generation die)

Mission, contact, here we go!

And so we take what's necessary
A handful of plenty
This is not romance, this is survival
The truth will conquer denial

We're laughing at lightning
Were shouting at thunder
We worry, we wait
While we wonder, we wander

Where exactly is it we need to be
We keep guessing and asking where will this path lead

Where have we been
Where are we now
Where will we be
(Forgotten in space and time)

How long must we wait
How long will it take
For you to believe
(Will my generation die)

Mission, contact, here we go!
