Verse 1
Waste drums boiling on the dark side
Magnetic surge the Geiger screams
Atomic accident and sky is tearing
September moon breaks from her dreams
Chain reaction Earth in the rearview
Blasted out hurled to the unknown
International outpost now a starship
Riding a dead world into the void
Pre-Chorus
We have Breakaway
Breakaway
Eagles lost
No way home
Chorus
MOONBASE ALPHA adrift in endless night
MOONBASE ALPHA 311 into light
We are the ink and thunder lost beyond the sun
ALPHA ALPHA the voyage has begun
Verse 2
Commander Koenig fire and pragmatic steel
Helena Russell beating heart in the black
Bergman the wise white-haired prophet
Carter on the Eagle screaming down a gravity well
Morrow at Main Mission Benes at the screens
Kano and the Computer whispering dream
Year Two burns in Psychon flare
MAYA metamorph molecule shifter Verdeschi locks and loads
Pre-Chorus
We have Breakaway
Breakaway
Eagles lost
No way home
Chorus
MOONBASE ALPHA adrift in endless night
MOONBASE ALPHA 311 into light
We are the ink and thunder lost beyond the sun
ALPHA ALPHA the voyage has begun

Chorus
