From Venus, we flew down to Earth
In search of something new, something different
We left our home unattended
So soon we left, so unprepared we were
For we had to find something new, something different

We were met with unforseen circumstances
The place was definitely new
But was no different
How disappointing, I am disappointed

We are here now, faced with the unknown
The only thing in sight are these red lights
So we know our journey has to end
Two steps forward and a step backwards
Progress? Well I dunno

We've never liked red lights
But now we have no choice
No path leads home
Our airships destroyed on landing
Materials foreign to us hinder our rebuild
Earth is our new home
Earth is our new life

Blinded by our disappointment
We don't realize that Earth has embraced us
Earth has accepted us, and loved us
Blinded by our despair
We don't realize that Earth suffers
Earth weeps, and Earth bleeds

When will we hear Earth's voice?
When will our blindfolds be removed?
When will we learn to love, and to accept
That we have nowhere
But Earth?
