lyrics

Hello, is anybody there
We thought we were alone in space, but now we know we share
This blue sphere that you call "Earth" was like a tiny little marble in the void
So we marveled in joy

We know we could never live in peace
We lived inside your shadows, we would hear what you would speak
We would listen to your songs and music
And even though we could not cry in tears, that did not matter to our ears

We're afraid and lost, like all beings
Our hopes had been resigned
And from the stars came Voyager, your last gift to our kind
Across all worlds, all times, we would realize one universal truth
That you are beautiful.

We saw a great and big white flash
And just like that, our planet has been reduced to ash
We did not know of any reasons why your kind would resort to such means
Why you crushed our dreams

Our feelings, they loop around, they loop
We came so close to striking back, but we misunderstood
So let’s hop on Jupiter’s beat
We still have some time before we pack our seats
We’ll sing a final suite:

“It's just not true
Couldn't ask for anymore than you
Because you look at me
As though I'm beautiful
Could it be that you want me
I never dreamed someone like me could love someone like you.”

We have one last hope at salvation, one chance to make it right
And so we send out Voyager, our last gift to your light
From one maker of music to another
Hearing your love for this awesome space
We fell in love again

Life’s afraid and lost; that’s all beings
Our hopes had been resigned
And from the stars came Voyager, your last gift to our kind
Across all worlds, all times, we would realize one universal truth
That you are beautiful.

“Frankly, pop culture is a bit better at rocking people emotionally than the better chunk of the so-called fine arts.” - Kadono Kouhei, authour of ‘Boogiepop’

“...소위 팝컬쳐라 불리는 게 있다. 예술이라 하기엔 좀 그렇긴 한데 하여튼 사람의 마음을 뒤흔드는 점에 간해서는 어정쩡한 파인 아트보다 힘이 세기도 하는 놈이다.” - 카도노 코우헤이, '부기팝' 작가
