I never thought that we were alone, floating amongst the stars I built a station to survey for life past the colony on Mars Sending signals to the great beyond, hoping one day they'd be returned But static and solitude were all I found until I heard Hello? Can you hear me? I am lost amongst the stars Our ship's drive core has shorted out and no one has fuel like ours Out in the Kuiper Belt, so far away, we ran into a magnetic screen Our life supports are running out and hope seems like a distant dream I am a dignitary, she pleads, as her voice turns into a scream If you're able to come to our aid, you'll have the gratitude of royalty! I'm sending coordinates out there; if you hear me, you'll know just where to go And I swear if you help me, there's going to be a cash reward in store The message cuts out A wave of interference is all that remains of what I found Could it be what I've waited for? A chance to make amends and break out of this scheme? True dichotomy Distress beacon, from a vessel worlds away If space is the place, then this is a race A bounty to be paid I am the bastion son of chivalry, despite what some may think of me Just one more score and we'll retire to warmth It is a place where few men go and none return The unexplored terrain I hope you know where you're going - nowhere (Cash rewards, a chance to leave this place)
