My House On Mars from Ayreon’s Universal Migrator Part 1&2 which was released in 2000. Order: LYRICS: “It is the end of the 21st Century. I have returned to my own childhood. I remember it all as the Dream Sequencer images mix with my own recollections. This is the day my sister and I realised that we would never see the planet Earth.“ [Johan Edlund, Floor Jansen] Daddy where are you now Forgot about your vow? You promised you’d return and take me to Earth Did you have to fight that war What was it all for? The honor of one’s name, what is it worth? I’m all alone - we’re all alone My future’s unknown - our future’s unknown I reach out to the stars out here in my house on Mars Mother did you hear me cry? You never told me why You put me in this world of rock and dust No friends for playing games No foes who scorn my name Computerized machines of steel and rust Is this my home? - this is our home This desolate dome - this desolate dome I call out to the stars: I’m alone in my house on Mars I’ll never smell the ocean breeze I’ll never climb the highest trees I’ll never feel the burning sun I’ll never meet my chosen one... in my house Daddy I forgive you now You could not keep your vow You will never return, I’ll never see Earth My time has come - our time has come I’m emotionally numb - emotionally numb I’m headed for the stars, I’m leaving my house on Mars No friends in my house on Mars No foes in my house on Mars I was born in my house on Mars I will die in my house on Mars #ayreon #arjenlucassen
