>> To try, when your arms are too weary
>> To reach, the unreachable star

>> This is my quest, to follow that star
>> No matter how hopeless, no matter how far
>> And to fight for the right, without question or pause
>> To be willing to march into Hell, for a heavenly cause

>> And I know if I'll only be true, to this glorious quest
>> That my heart will lie will lie peaceful and calm
>> When I'm laid to my rest

>> And the world will be better for this
>> That one man, scorned and covered with scars
>> Still strove, with his last ounce of courage
>> To reach
>> The unreachable
>> The unreachable
>> The unreachable stars
