[ Featuring the Fighters ]
If you climb into that rocket
If you enter cryosleep
Everyone you know and love will die
And if somehow you make it
And you don't die in transit
What is waiting for you on the other side
Someone's gotta colonize these brand new worlds
Boldly go where no man has gone before
Mankind must reach up to the heavens
What else could the heavens be for
The risk unfathomable
The reward intangible
You'll face death every day for the unknown
I'll write you by ansible
But before you ever receive my mail
1000 years have passed for us back home
Someone's gotta colonize these brand new worlds
Boldly go where no man has gone before
Mankind must reach up to the heavens
What else could the heavens be for
As we load the ship, we wonder who funds it
Who'd spend so much to send us away
There is much to be learned out in space
But our investors will never see that day
Someone's gotta colonize these brand new worlds
Boldly go where no man has gone before
Mankind must reach up to the heavens
What else could the heavens be for
