Episode Synopsis

Link to listen. Lyrics Verse 1 I've heard the Earth was holy before the code broke through that rainfall raptured deserts into bloom I've heard that emerald mosses grew in hollows damp with morning dew I've heard the oceans rose and fell while following the moon   Chorus But I was born on this generation ship Generation ship, take us away they said there was no need to fear but now the sun's a dyson sphere Generation ship, take us away   Verse 2 They had to feed it faster they had to win the race the cooling platform smothered out the sea They swore it was our saving grace well worth the price to push the pace until it locked the power grid and swallowed down the key Verse 3 If I could send a message back through time I'd beg you all to pause No AI will self-align You've got to draw a line The stars are blinking out around me Pass some laws Chords Verses G C G D G C D Em D C C D Chorus G Em G C D Em Bm C D7 G [Folk music] is a process.
