Exist - Avenged Sevenfold (七級煉獄)
Written by:Brooks Wackerman/Jonathan Seward/Brian Haner/Zachary Baker/Matthew Sanders

Our truth is painted across the sky
In our reflection we learn to fly
No hand to hold us
No one to save us from tomorrow
Sailing away beyond the reach of anyone
Far beyond the dreams of everyone
No light to follow
A shot in the dark
Does anybody know
Sailing away beyond the reach of anyone
Far beyond the dreams of everyone
High from the heavens
I can't see the pain
Does anybody care
Think for a moment of all the lives
Stripped of their essence before their time
We stand to conquer
But is there nothing left tomorrow
Sailing away beyond the reach of anyone
Far beyond the dreams of everyone
No light to follow
A shot in the dark
Does anybody know
Sailing away beyond the reach of anyone
Far beyond the dreams of everyone
High from the heavens
I can't see the pain
Does anybody care
We have one collective hope the earth
And yet uncounted people remain hopeless
Famine and calamity abound
Sufferers curl themselves into the arms of war
People kill and get killed in the name of someone else's concept of god
Do we admit that our thoughts and behaviors spring from a belief
That the world revolves around us
Each fabricated conflict self murdering bomb
Vanished airplane every fictionalized dictator
Biased or partisan and wayward son
Are part of the curtains of society's racial ethnic
Religious national and cultural conflicts
And you find the human ego turning the knobs and pulling the levers
When I track the orbits of asteroids comets and planets
Each one a pirouetting dancer in a cosmic ballet choreographed by the forces of gravity
I see beyond the plight of humans
I see a universe ever expanding with its galaxies embedded within the ever stretching
Four dimensional fabric of space and time
However big our world is our hearts
Our minds our outsize atlases the universe is even bigger
There are more stars in the universe than grains of sand on the world's beaches
More stars in the universe than seconds of time that have passed since earth formed
More stars than words and sounds ever uttered
By all humans who have ever lived
The day we cease the exploration of the cosmos is the day
We threaten the continuing of our species
In that bleak world arms bearing
Resource hungry people and nations would be
Prone to act on their low contracted prejudices
And would have seen the last gasp of human enlightenment
Until the rise of a visionary new culture that once again
Embraces the cosmic perspective
A perspective in which we are one
Fitting neither above nor below but within
