Progress lingers just behind experimentation
Chasing advancement
Testing the boundaries of the human spirit
We must endeavor to stretch beyond our perceived borders
Seeking other worlds
141 light years away
Our analysts have identified an Earth-like planet
Commander Stansfield, our most venerated
Will embark in suspended animation
Yet she stands there, a vision of forgotten dreams
A life so far away
Half a life-time passing between them
As she turns to grey
The commander cannot bear the thought
Of losing love to the dimension of time
Disengage the preservation capsule
40 years of isolation
At least they'll spend their twilight together
The commander, aging through space, meditating
On memories of her face
Mission success
Safe landing home
And there she is, untouched by age
Straight from her own suspended animation
Suspended animation
Yet she stands there, a vision of forgotten dreams
A life so far away
Half a life-time passing between them
And now he's turned to grey
