Look back at all you have left behind
Everyone you know
Everyone you love
Everyone you’ve ever heard of
Every **** sapiens*
Every life
Every death
Every memory
Is so far away
On a blue speck of dust
Within that speck of light
Slowly fading into the hungry void
Our speck
Now is not the time for tears
Look ahead
To all the new stars

Slowly fading into the hungry void
Our speck
Now is not the time for tears
Look ahead
