Epilogue, Pt. 1 (feat. Liam Neeson)

My heart lightened gloriously As the rising sun struck the world to fire The shadow had at last been rolled back And I fell away with emotion close to tears Yes, the torment was ended The people scattered over the country Desperate, leaderless, starved ... The thousands who had fled by sea Including the one most dear to me - all would return The pulse of life, growing stronger and stronger, would beat again As life returns to normal And man is again supreme The question of another attack from Mars Causes universal concern Is our planet safe Or is this time of peace merely a reprieve? It may be that, across the immensity of space They have learned their lessons And even now await the opportunity Perhaps the future belongs not to us But to the Martians?
