Their world was torn asunder
And there’s no more song or dance
But a few had escaped their fate
To live out a second chance

The departure had been pre-arranged
For this eternal flight
They followed closely a distant star —
An ever-guiding light…

Time was all that they had left…

Their voyage had been slow
And they floated through the air
They were so close yet far away
And beginning not to care

They soon thereafter found themselves
On a warm, climatic place
No more dull and lonesome hours
Spent in grueling space

They set foot on their new found land
Gave it a fitting name
They sowed it full of useful crops
And turned the wildlife tame

Now these pilgrims from another world
Had established a new home
They charted it from east to west
And divided it into zones…

“Everything we need is here
We can live without doubt or fear
Do away with wrath and tears

“We’ve discovered a brave new world
Let the banners be unfurled”

This paragon of living
Gave birth to Love and Giving
Everyone was satisfied
With all their lives so unified

They all lived in harmony
Danced and sang triumphantly
All together and free

The sky was blue with cheer and love
As their God watched from above

They worked and played in open fields
And traded samples of their yields
Gorged themselves at every meal
Life on Earth was so ideal

They worshiped trees and hills afar
Gave pleasant names to all the stars
And let go pre-developed scars

But soon the Love had turned to Greed
And the flowers turned to weeds…

The valleys had divided
But the oceans rumbled on
As the ground and sky collided
The memories of Love were gone

This ancient land of paradise
Had begun to waste away
This wondrous land of happiness
Had somehow gone astray

The conflict of the Ages
Had made them unaware
That they were tearing up their world
And far beyond compare

No one seemed to notice
That there was nothing at peace
With silent screams of suffering
And riots in the streets

The sun turned its head
As all of the Earth turned red
The greatest evil had led
Them into the ground instead…

Transformed into a holy Hell
Aergonia was all but dead
The need of always having more
Had vaporized their stead
Destruction now was all they knew
There was no hope at all
And everything for which they’d lived
Once rose and now would fall

When the smoke had risen
And the dust had cleared…

…The scars of the battle
had all but disappeared

A handful of frightened ones
Fled to escape their fears…

They climbed aboard their mighty ships
Set sail to the sky
Taking with them memories
Ignorant of the ancient try

To the other end of the universe
So they can be alone
To get away from their parent land
And start one of their own…
