PLANET RIDER

I
Way back in 1968 we sent some brave souls to the skies.
T’was the first time the human race, 
did see our blue-green world from space.
So many strange emotions stirred inside,
and took center stage.
It felt like comin’ home, or the memory,
from a dim and distant age!

II
We ride roughshod over the land,
and leave destruction in our wake;
oblivious to signs in nature,
that the hour is getting late.
Our concrete tentacles 
extend all across the land.
Will we continue on this path
till the whole is desert sand?

Chorus (2X):
When we arrive at last on the other side;
stripped of flesh, bereft of bone,
what will we know then?

III
Since long before records of time
the human race has forged ahead.
Continents sank, ice ages raged;
and still we always rose again.
But will the outcome be the same,
this time my friends?
Or have we tipped the scales of balance,
to far for us to mend?

IV
We wage our wars. We play our games;
as we sleep-walk across life’s stage.
The final act (?) approaching fast;
the curtain soon may fall at last!
Do you ever wonder, planet rider,
if it has to be this way?
We’re only reaping what we’ve sown.
It’s time we changed our ways!
