The Worlds Beyond

Is this it?
Is this the life we were promised?
To struggle in the mud until old age claims us?
To wage wars over the words of ancient gods?
To send our sons to slaughter in their names?
We were destined for so much more
So much more than what we have become
To the worlds beyond
Mother Earth weeps for those she loves
For those who would've been the children of the stars
We were her legacy
Her gift to the worlds beyond
To the worlds beyond
