Portals in the Void

In the end I will escape Through the void And time Will not be A burden I'll fly away To escape Traveling through Portals in the void I'll fly away To escape Traveling through Portals in the void Our hopes for peace and security Our obligations to ourselves as well as others All require us to make this effort To solve these mysteries To solve them for the good of all men Whether it becomes a force of good or ill depends on man Space can be explored and mastered Without meeting the fires of war Without repeating the mistakes that man has made in extending his writ around this globe of ours But why, some say, the moon? Why choose this as our goal Why climb the highest mountain Why, 35 years ago, fly the Atlantic We choose to go to the moon in this decay and do the other things Not because they are easy, but because they are hard I'll fly away To escape Traveling through Portals in the void
