Europe VII
The disconnection starts, the air and energy ends
There is no one in the controls, the ship floats wandering
And I, with melancholic vision, review science and religion,
I point out to the sun, that is where I lived.
A small blue dot gets lost between a million sparks
It’s my planet, a light-day away, and a lesson in perspective
And I, scared to death in a corner, think about my civilization
I whisper in the command port that I lived there
Then I break down crying and thousands of teardrops defy gravity
I take away my flag from my space suit
And I write on the back that I belong to humanity
As the monitor indicates, I have less time left
To suffer the collision that brings me back to the firmament
And I, hear the echo of my voice
Recording this retransmission
So that it plays in the future and serves as a lesson
And then I break down crying,
and thousands of teardrops defy gravity
I take away my flag from my space suit and I write on the back
that I belong to humanity, the fragile existence, miraculous and casual
The smallest life is worth a thousand times more than largest nation ever invented.
Evropa VII
Počinje prekid veze, nestaje vazduha I energije,
Nema nikog u kontroli, svemirski brod samo luta,
I ja sa melanholičnom vizijom, pregledam nauku I religiju,
Pokazuje suncu kroz prozor, tamo sam živela ja
Sićušna plava tačka gubi se među million varnica
To je moja planeta, svetlosni dan odavde, I jedna lekcija perspektive,
I ja, uplašena na smrt u jednom ćošku, mislim na svoju civilizaciju
Šapućem na komandnom mostu da sam tamo živela ja
I onda briznem u plač, I hiljade kapljica narušavaju gravitaciju
Skidam zastavu sa svog svemirskog odela I pišem umesto toga
Da sam član ljudske rase
Kako pokazuje monitor, ostaje mi sve manje vremena,
Da bih pretrpela sudar koji me vraća nebu
I ja slušam eho svog glasa kako snima ovaj prenos
Ba bi se čuo u budućnosti I poslužio kao lekcija
I onda briznem u plač, I hiljade kapljica narušavaju gravitaciju
Skidam zastavu sa svog svemirskog odela I pišem umesto toga
Ja sam deo ljudske rase
Krhko postojanje, čudesno I neusiljeno
Najmanji život vredi hiljadu puta više
Nego najveća nacija ikada izmišljena
