[music: s. drover, g. drover]
[lyrics: s. drover]
checking the engines - all things are in place
strapped down the countdown's begun
lift-off in flames - smoke is filling the sky
arrival to countdown is done
may god be with us - now splitting the sky
launching our way into space
many - failed to pass the test
can't attain - illusive
expanding horizons - a leap for mankind
mission is set and in place
drifting through masses of binary stars
solar flares beaming with light
radar detection - incredulous site
the black hole - approaching in space
many - failed to pass the test
can't attain - illusive

[1st section - andy]
[2nd section - glen]
mission control has detected - encourage
to alter the plan - it's too late
sucking our spacecraft in forbidden blackness
components malfunction - now frayed
losing all contact with mission control
1000 light years from home
many failed to pass the test
the black hole - illusive |
