Nightwish - Sagan Lyrics






Make me wonder
Make me understand
Spark the light of doubt and a newborn mind
Bring the vast unthinkable down to Earth
Always wary of a captive thought
Beware the very first unkind word
See who you are, where from, what of

[Chorus:]
Entering the unknown
Sending all the poets to the stars
Daring to see beyond the man-made
Woe to you who evade the horizon
Listening to Sagan
Dreaming Carl Sagan
Unseen streams
With understanding no poet is trapped
Woe to all who stop at the horizon

What kind of world would we call home
Our own
Oasis of love, humility and hope
Eradicating all that's not for life
What kind of aim would we call high
What kind of life would bath in the brightest white
A limitless world will arise
Son of man, dare to let go of the cowardice

[Chorus x3]

Nightwish Sagan Comments
  1. L.... S....

    English must not be your first language. I'm sorry but the lyrics are utterly botched. The dumbest part is you could have avoided this by copy-pasting them off the internet. Otherwise not a terrible video even if it's lazily done.

  2. C.... W....

    I can’t believe i find this song 4 years after the release ‘Endless Forms Most Beautiful’. Why is it not on Spotify/iTunes? 😭🤘🏻

    C.... W....

    Chantal Weijgertse same question here 😰 thank you for watching. One of the best songs among many others of course !

  3. N.... P....

    'ooooh ooooh'
    My favourite lyrics tbh

  4. D.... B....

    Why animate the subtitle? It just make hard to follow the song.

  17. A.... S....

    Sorry guys, nobody was on the moon -.-

  26. W.... R....

    Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there-on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam. -Carl Sagan

    W.... R....

    Wayne Ren such a speech like that, will remain forever🖤

  27. r.... B....

    I close my eyes and Floor Jansen breaks my heart using ur voice at 02:54 - 03:12 Just like a mermaid. Love her 😍

    r.... B....

    raphael BHZ thank you for watching 🖤

  28. D.... O....

  32. M.... D....

    Lots of mistakes in the lyrics.
    Nice video though.

  33. Z.... ....

  34. R.... ....

    fantastic!

  35. J.... K....

    U čast RIP velikana koji je svojom inspiracijom pokrenuo ........

  36. J.... K....

    Tnx,Clark Sagan,

  38. K.... B....

    Amazing..
    Jansen ,,I think im falling in love with that name..

  39. M.... A....

    Spotify? :'v

  40. L.... C....

    When we study Science and listen to these Nightwish songs, we understand how underestimated and ignored are our rational existence. As a Science and Nightwish lover, I'd say this is a truly science promotion. And I'm grateful for that.

  41. D.... S....

    41 godina woja....er

  42. H.... M....

    I'm not even an atheist and I love this song. I love the whole album. That's the beauty of Nightwish, they unite all kinds of people

    H.... M....

    I am, and I'm really not trying to offend you, but I've never seen the point of believers denying and not revelling in scientific discovery. Whether it was created by a god or not, there's tremendous beauty out in the universe, and refusing to look at as its is and bathe in its glory, in order to maintain antiquated views of the cosmos seems to me, if I did believe in a god, like spitting in his face.

    H.... M....

    what does atheism got to do with great music and the grandeur of the universe?

    H.... M....

    @Nikolaus You are definitely right about that, I've never understood some people's reluctance to open their mind to the universe either. Images of the ''pillars of creation'' always fill me with awe

    H.... M....

    I'm a muslim and I am obsessed with the cosmos and Carl Sagan's work . I'm Always in awe in front of the galaxy and I accept everything the universe has to teach me . So what does our religious beliefs have to do with being a curious , free-spirited thinker in love with knowledge ?

  43. �.... �....

    Епона мать, как круто)))

  44. D.... S....

    Tnx Sagan, forewer,RIP.

  45. D.... S....

    Zanimljivo?

  46. J.... Q....

    I've got fucking goosebumps, god DAMN!

  47. D.... ....

    TOO BAD THE EARTH ISNT A GLOBE AND WE DIDNT GO TO THE MOON EITHER, ALL THIS CRAP YOU PEOPLE SEE LIKE THE ISS SHOWING EARTH? ALL A BUNCH A CRAP, THE EARTH IS NOT A GLOBE AND WE CANT GO TO SPACE EITHER, KNOW WHY? BECAUSE THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS SPACE, COOL VIDEO THOUGH

    D.... ....

    Idiots like u will fall...

    D.... ....

    Dude, sniffin glue is very bad for you..

    D.... ....

    @Mad Hatter so is believing every thing that is presented to you as fact, when in fact we are being lied to on a scale that very few can comprehend. Dude

    D.... ....

    DB- I agree with most of what you just said, but the world- is not flat..

    D.... ....

    @Mad Hatter I'm not 100 percent either but flat makes more biblical sense and more of my common sense, I mean we live on a ball?really? A lot of what I see trying to prove globe is fake stuff, you cant curve water on a globe some one said, earth curve calculator is a joke, check it out

  70. B.... F....

    I know that this was just a bonus song on one of the CD releases, but Man I would go mental to see them playing this live.

    B.... F....

    Barry Filter there is still a hope they have been changing during start of the tour, it migh be another change on festivals or any european performance to hear this song live. Fingers crossed🤞🏼

    B.... F....

    I live in Canada how big are my chances that this ever happens :(

    B.... F....

    Barry Filter buuuu I was there, what a beautiful country! I traveled to see them last week

  71. L.... S....

    A onaj glupan u neboderu misli da ne znam da mu je to..... Ne bih o tome. 6-to culo? Ma neeeee

    Za nas to postoji, to cuvamo stitimo i sve za buduce generacije. Tu nema nacije, vjere, religije, rase, bogatstva, siromastva, nego Vrhunske nauke od civilizacija poput ATLANTIDE, ocky?

  73. V.... ....

    now they should make some song about Stiven Hawking

  74. S.... L....

    I always thought it was "woe to you who stop at the horizon"

    Ej vi koji "kamen mudraca nosite u djepu i komentirate o covijeku koji je buducnost i osnovu potaknuo za ljudski rod ne pizdite puno. Vase neznanje je u srazu predandertalca i ono sto je sve stvorilo iz" nicega ". Razvoj tehnoloskoprirodnog pristupa taj covijek je pokrenuo (ne zbog vlasitog interes nego sveukupnosti) On je Americki suvremeni Tesla. A nebu i zemlji se treba zahvaliti da je to naslijedan faktor - i to treba razvijati i dalje. Zasto? Zato jer je i tu dio odgovora za kojim ljudski rod od nastanka postanka svega zeli odgovor. Pa majku mu zar svatko pitanje ne bi trebalo imati odgovor podkrepljen fizickim materijalnim dokazima pa cak i nekima o kojima covijek i sav ljudski rod nije sanjao a kamo li pomislio. Stvarno ste cudni

    I would love to hear Nightwish do a song recognizing a scientist that wasn't a rabid atheist.

    a.... ....

    Like who?

    a.... ....

    Scientist=atheist

    Borislav Nedyalkov Newton was a Christian, Einstein also wasn't without some religious quirks, Darwin never denounced his Christian faith.

    Josh Cavaradossi deseo que la podamos ver en vivo en el próximo tour! Coincido contigo gracias por ver el vídeo.

  94. F.... ....

    So few bands continue to outdo themselves with each new release. Nightwish walks a lonely path.

  95. M.... W....

    Absolutely had the greatest respect for Carl Sagan and have his epic series on dvd. Iove this song because it somehow embraces him. A man of vision but also understanding. Very special song.

    M.... W....

    Michael Wanklin I hope they bring it live During decades tour thank you for watching 😀
