Lyrics

Solo: M. Kirkwold Awakening from cold slumber We've traveled so far Our hopes and dreams have led us here A desperate flight towards distant stars Using the gifts of the old ones We followed the ancient routes Arriving at last to a lifeless system Our hope gives way to doubt A glittering band of ice No signs of life Unfathomable ruins Only alien tombs A stellar grave, devoid of life A shattered world, sterilized Abandoned craft, the necrolith What waits for us among the derelicts? Solo: C. Skildum Among the ruins, an ominous find The cold regard of synthetic minds No loving grace in these machines Here at the end, only shattered dreams Creations extinguish their builders A reckoning through the great filter A glittering band of ice No signs of life Unfathomable ruins Only alien tombs A stellar grave, devoid of life A shattered world, sterilized Abandoned craft, the necrolith What waits for us among the derelicts? Flesh and machine, joined as one Sentient growth mycelium Awakening the alien dead The virus begins to spread Solo: M. Kirkwold A twisted mass of carbon and silicon We've crossed our final rubicon Man and machine, conversion to biomass Our mortal flesh has set them free at last Here at the end of all our dreams So cruelly deceived An ancient evil once again Has been unleashed
