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 their allegiance 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 to being true and faithful, they now began to revolt You crossed the line I was honest and 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 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 consumed 57 souls Died in vain His love 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
