๐ Lyrics
Think of every human being who ever existed
Who lived out their lives
On a speck of dust floating in the enormous sea of space
Every caveman who hunted
Every king and queen
Every humble peasant
Every man and woman in love
Every father and mother of every hopeful child
Every creator and killer of civilisation
Every inspiring leader
Every evil dictator
Every inventor
Every explorer
Every amazing artist and musician
Every superstar
Every single person in the entire history of our species lived here
On this tiny blue island floating in the infinite cosmic abyss
Now imagine all the oceans of blood
Spilled by all those generals and emperors
So that in triumph and glory
They could become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot
There is probably no better picture
To sum up all the errors of our ways
And put everything into true perspective
Then seeing this distant image of our tiny world
From this vantage point it's easy to see
That our similarities far outweigh our differences
We are all human
In all the vastness of the cosmos
There is not hint that help will come from elsewhere
To save us from ourselves
Like it or not the Earth is where we make our stand
That's here
That's home
That's us
We are special
And this beautiful little island that we call home
Is a true miracle of the universe
To me, it shows us the importance of dealing
More kindly with one another
And to preserve and cherish the pale blue dot
The only home we've ever known
Who lived out their lives
On a speck of dust floating in the enormous sea of space
Every caveman who hunted
Every king and queen
Every humble peasant
Every man and woman in love
Every father and mother of every hopeful child
Every creator and killer of civilisation
Every inspiring leader
Every evil dictator
Every inventor
Every explorer
Every amazing artist and musician
Every superstar
Every single person in the entire history of our species lived here
On this tiny blue island floating in the infinite cosmic abyss
Now imagine all the oceans of blood
Spilled by all those generals and emperors
So that in triumph and glory
They could become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot
There is probably no better picture
To sum up all the errors of our ways
And put everything into true perspective
Then seeing this distant image of our tiny world
From this vantage point it's easy to see
That our similarities far outweigh our differences
We are all human
In all the vastness of the cosmos
There is not hint that help will come from elsewhere
To save us from ourselves
Like it or not the Earth is where we make our stand
That's here
That's home
That's us
We are special
And this beautiful little island that we call home
Is a true miracle of the universe
To me, it shows us the importance of dealing
More kindly with one another
And to preserve and cherish the pale blue dot
The only home we've ever known
