Say goodbye to home Wave farewell to friends from long ago The terror is here, The foe far from space We race past the Sun The sensors show progress on the way Into the black hole we'll dive Without hope for new dawn Our new dawn Striders, Striders of the Universe A quest through time and space, Through death's embrace Striders, Striders of the Universe We'll reach eternity We'll crush the wheel of time and see Turning the pages for you One thing you must know: Those alien invaders are no more Than posers from space There's no turning back It's time to prepare for our last stand Pulse cannons lock in And lasers are primed The sweat on your brow, The feeling of tension all around Just smash down the throttle And someday you may yet see Earth Oh, Mother Earth Striders, Striders of the Universe A quest through time and space, Through death's embrace Striders, Striders of the Universe We'll reach eternity We'll crush the wheel of time and see The time without war it now seems A lifetime ago How could we ever have known There'd be posers in space Constellations merge into galaxies As time itsels shifts and curves In neverending cyclical motions As countless stars swirl around me I feel that somewhere right before our eyes Hidden in plain sight lies the mystery... of life! Striders, Striders of the Universe A quest through time and space, Through death's embrace Striders, Striders of the Universe We'll reach eternity We'll crush the wheel of time and see The time without war it now seems A lifetime ago How could we ever have known There'd be posers in space
