I. DESTINATION

[Verse 1-1A]
NEGATIVE:
Tired and weary, we’re losing count of the days
That we sailed the stars
Our eyes are heavy from seeing the blackness of space
Exhausted we are

[Verse 1-1B]
POSITIVE:
A glimpse of light emerges from the void
Just when I thought the dream had been destroyed

[Chorus 1]
POSITIVE:
As we slowly reach the world beyond
A new euphoria arrives
Our older mindset of pessimism’s gone
And the sadness all subsides
The human race is alive!

[Verse 1-2A]
POSITIVE:
I see ocean and can feel the warmth of the sun
This planet goes ‘round
I’m still hoping the best is still yet to come
No turning back now

[Verse 1-2B]
NEGATIVE:
A thought appears: don’t want to cause alarm
Could their intention to be to cause us harm?

[Chorus 1]

[Bridge]
FOLÚP’:
Congratulations, human race!
Today’s the day we finally get to meet you face to face
But still this question burns so deep inside
Are you now ready for the truth
That we have had to hide..?

II. REVELATION

[Verse 2-1]
FOLÚP’:
When our star was fairly young
A billion years ago
Our world was struck by a wayward rock
The Rings are the scars we show

It sent a fragment flying far away
It held a copy of our DNA
Maybe, we think, it had struck your planet?
Giving rise to an age of mammals?

We are your origin of life
The reason that your world was alive...

III. CONCLUSION

[Verse 3-1A]
FOLÚP’:
Now you know this, we hope you all understand
Why our lips were sealed
For we were worried that you would not comprehend
Or think it was real

[Verse 3-1B]
POSITIVE:
It’s now the time to discard misery
Change all we know and re-write history!

[Verse 3-2A]
POSITIVE:
As we slowly reach the world beyond
A new euphoria arrives
Our older mindset of pessimism’s gone
And the sadness all subsides

[Verse 3-2B]
THE ROGUE:
As I fly, I wish you well
As you reach the world beyond
You’ll survive without my help
I won’t be needed where you’ve gone

[Verse 3-2C]
NEGATIVE:
Did The ROGUE abandon us
Or did it save us from themself?
Can we say this story’s all over
Or is there so much more to tell?

[Verse 3-2D]
FOLÚP’ & THE ROGUE:
Through the trials you have undertaken
You’ve learned to leave your past behind
Dream realised and nightmares forsaken
You’ve no more demons to define

[Verse 3-2E]
FOLÚP' & THE ROGUE:
So now engage the landing gear
To disembark th’ Exodus One
And even though your journey’s at its end
Your new life has now begun!
