Once upon a time, before the lakes and rivers were polluted

Before the animals were poached to extinction


And before man had destroyed the earth's atmosphere


There was a great ship




This vessel was to venture into new waters


To find new resources to make life easier and more enjoyable

It was a simple mission for the crew


Who were excited to be a part of this union




They pledged to the captain and vowed


To be there no matter what, in sickness, health and possible death


As time passed by, there was no new land to be found

As the days grew shorter and the nights grew longer and colder





The crew became more and more

Skeptical about the captain's vision


Originally passionate and committed


True and faithful, they now began to revolt




You cross the line


I was honest, never promised anything

Just a brotherhood to stand for something


And everyone should take the lead


Follow your dreams, if you don't try, you fail




And we started


And the captain went over exchange

He asked them why their lives had changed


There's no gold to be found, no treasure in the ground


We won't die for this, we won't die for you




You've lost your mind


I was honest and never promised anything

Just a brotherhood to stand for something


And even if they disagree


Follow your dreams, if you don't try, you fail




His dream is now a shipwreck in the sand

They gave up then made all their demands


The storm ensues, fifty seven souls die in vain

As what they stole




This union, a battle fought and lost

This union was not about the cause


This union was never about love

This union, this union




This union, a battle fought and lost

This union was not about the cause

This union was never about love


This union, this union



This union, a battle fought and lost


This union was not about the cause

This union was never about love
