Story Behind the Song
If you don't already know, IO is a moon of Jupiter. IO has a similar atmosphere to earth and we think we may have found signs of plant life there deep below the ice. Some of us sci-fi fans dream of someday starting over there...but know that no matter were we go, we are human and will make the same mistakes that make us want to go there in the first place... that is the gist of this song.
Lyrics
show the understanding theories
that overpopulation kills
and know this is the answer
preluding and escaping will
to leave our present home
go and find our own
fates are similar
new steps, new curse
new steps, same curse
step within our realm
on IO
we can start over without
flaws of ranks or laws dead hatred
our minds read beyond
this point of recognition
to find out for ourselves
to prove its self worthless
to us
the dream is the way, see
beyond seize the day, take
time contemplate your life
I don't know why we don't try
to search the skies and realize
if we die we can't deny that
we as one will overcome
this vision is the way to look beyond
try and relate and focus on the surreal
but it has everything to do with you
and us seeking new dreams
coming on to us without reasoning
sufficiently binding us into coping
with our destinies, curiosity,
which is our first instinct
pass through to a new world,
of what we've only imagined.
we have looked to the skies.
we have prayed to the stars.
we cannot complain cause
we've only come so far.
new steps at achieving complete bliss
new curse, more problems to deal with
you're denying me the hypocrisies
evolution is misleading
new steps, same dreams
same curse, same fate
we move on to the day of receiving
our new thoughts we must leave
we must go beyond
we must overcome our natural instinct
and cease to destroy
same curse, same fate
stand within our realm
on IO
we can start over without
flaws of ranks or laws dead hatred
our minds read beyond
this point of recognition
to find out for ourselves
to prove its self worthless
to us
the dream is the way, see
beyond sieze the day, take
time contemplate your life
I don't know why we don't try
to search the skies and realize
if we die we can't deny that
we as one will overcome
this vision is the way to look beyond
try and relate and focus on the surreal
but it has everything to do with you
and us seeking new dreams
coming on to us without reasoning
sufficiently binding us into coping
with our destinies, curiosity,
which is our first instinct
go all alone, and stand on our own
we can't look up to our hopes of one
day seeing our destiny unfold
we must wake up and go
go all alone
see with our eyes alone
