Beneath the waves, we wait in our steel cocoon,
Silent watchers under a ghostly moon
We see the echoes of a world we can’t yet reclaim
And all because someone had to break the chain
Instruments gauge the fallout above,
Scan for a hint of the home that we loved
Could this be it? Could this be it?
I think it is
Escape the pit
We're re-surfacing, re-surfacing, to breathe again
To mend what's been, rising up from the ocean bed
Surely it's time, has danger fled?
Re-surfacing to see the world anew
It was torn to shreds, we're the cleanup crew
We retrace the maps of the old shorelines, etched in our minds,
Hoping for a habitable place to find.
Our old home, now just an ended story
We move onward to new glory
Sensors reach through the water, through the silent expanse,
Listening for signs of life, so we can advance.
Is it time? Is this it?
I think it is. Escape the pit.
We're re-surfacing, re-surfacing, to breathe again
To mend what's been, rising up from the ocean bed
Surely it's time, has danger fled?
Re-surfacing to see the world anew
It was torn to shreds, we're the cleanup crew
How many days turned to nights and back again,
In this watery abyss, where we made our den.
The dream for the sun to shine on our faces once more,
Drives us to ascend, drives us to shore.
Could this be it? Could this be it?
I think it is... ESCAPE THE PIT!
We're re-surfacing, re-surfacing, to breathe again
To mend what's been, rising up from the ocean bed
Surely it's time, has danger fled?
Re-surfacing to see the world anew
It was torn to shreds, we're the cleanup crew
Tomorrow perhaps, we’ll reach that surface and see,
A planet reborn, for you, for me.
Until then, we hold in the deep blue, and wait,
For the day we resurface, to open the gate.
