Caught in the Crossfire Lyrics

On assignment to the new world
They said there'd be more chance for war
Missed the shuttle to the main star
They promised they'd be back for more, oh yeah
Then the warships came without a sound
There were at least a hundred of them bearing down

Caught in the crossfire
Caught in a world insane, lord
War of the empire
No one will be the same, oh
Caught in the crossfire
Caught in a new age war, we were

I heard somebody say we'd be wasted
Under fire we were without defense
My buddy said he had a space van
A long range cruiser, it was our only chance, oh yeah
We could see no way out but one
There was no choice but to try and run

Caught in the crossfire
Caught in a world insane, lord
War of the empire
No one will be the same, oh
Caught in the crossfire
Caught in a new age war, we were

Odyssey, laser fight
One shot, last fight
Passed the warships through the neutral zone
Our engines sheared the night as we raced for home

Caught in the crossfire
Caught in a world insane, lord
War of the empire
No one will be the same, oh
Caught in the crossfire
Caught in a new age war, we were
Caught in the crossfire
Caught in a new age war

I think you'd naturally assume some stressful situation is unfolding and you've no control over its outcome, maybe feeling panicked or helpless and basically like the world is out to get you. I suppose the only positive or optimistic element to this song is that you're partnered with someone else, that you're going thru this together.
