2. Ashes Of Old Earth
Arise, feeble relics of old earth Those reborn upon the shoulders of gods We are the children of Hyperion Ashes of old earth
A century draped in black A bloodline stained by tyrants and man oh, how feeble and cruel are hopes and dreams to begin again
We are the children of Hyperion Fragments scattered beyond the sun
See this world Free of man How does it feel to abandon the dead? A world left to rot The world that we lost Earth, betrayed by us all
We sailed upon endless waves and set our eyes upon distant horizons The ashes of old earth Someday, will be forgotten
Dissent, within every breath Fear guiding every step Her eyes behold a world never seen before A gem found in a sea of coal
Her body, reflecting the light Cast by the distant horizon Remember child As our generation dies The essence of life Came from the Sky
We are the children of Hyperion Fragments scattered beyond the sun
See this world Free of man How does it feel to abandon the dead A world left to rot The world that we lost Earth, betrayed by us all
We sailed upon endless waves and set our eyes upon distant horizons The ashes of old earth Someday, will be forgotten
See this world Free of man How does it feel to abandon the dead A world left to rot The world that we lost Earth, betrayed by us all
We sailed upon endless waves and set our eyes upon distant horizons The ashes of old earth Someday, will be forgotten X2
3. Starscape
Her frozen breath Ignited by the distant sun Omnipotent frozen embers Suspended like the stars above The cold steel beneath her feet It triggers a haunting memory The look in her child’s eyes When she said her final goodbye
When given the chance To evolve or advance We retreat to the past Praying for ghosts to guide our hand Our lives far too short Our minds far too cold Our past buried in stone Our world absent of hope
Outlast the danger To be rewarded b y wonder Collide and assemble Bound by beauty and cruelty Destined to lose So much we wont see
Until the day we are planet bound In search of solid ground We cope with shattered memories Enduring simulated gravity
When given the chance To evolve or advance We retreat to the past Praying for ghosts to guide our hand Our lives far too short Our minds far too cold Our past buried in stone Our world absent of hope
Outlast the danger To be rewarded b y wonder Collide and assemble Bound by beauty and cruelty Destined to lose So much we wont see x3
4. Cryoshock
Oh, the price that we pay For the lives we betrayed Only washes away When we turn to star dust
This moment in time My life will collide Born from the sky This world demands life
The life that we seek [4x]
Floating in silence The price we pay Begins with boundless pain Awaken, only to die For a new life I can hear them scream I can see them bleed [2x]
The blood in my eyes Distorting the light Collapsing my mind My skin, crystallized My senses alive The pain gets me high Only to be wasted away Destined to be A lost memory
The life that we seek [4x]
Dancing in silence The price we pay Begins with boundless pain Awaken, only to die For a new life
I can hear them scream I can see them bleed [2x]
We came from the stars With hope in our eyes Fate is a lie My skin, crystallized My senses alive The pain gets me high Only to be wasted away Destined to be A lost memory [2x]
I only hope to dream Where ill never know pain
Oh, the price that we pay For the lives we betrayed Only washes away When we turn to star dust
The worlds which we seek A lost memory My cells on retreat They tear from each other
My bones Paralyzed The pain Amplified I didn’t come to die For a new life Shattered memory Of faces and names The essence of fate Begins to wash away
I can hear them scream I can see them bleed [2x]
5. The Horizon Effect
Into a cosmic sea Fragments of our essence Scattered beyond the sun Into a cosmic sea A frozen symphony
At any moment this all will end I shed my skin of human life To touch the land In the absence of the sky The air collapsing my chest Into a cosmic sea Fragments of my essence Slowly becoming one
I stand in the shadows of monuments At any moment this will end My final breath Like embers turning to dust My body will dissolve Into the cosmic sea Fragments of our essence Scattered beyond the sun Into a cosmic sea A frozen symphony
How I lust to breathe again
This machine Listen to her heartbeat She’ll sing eternally
This machine Oh, titan can you hear me Grant me eternal sleep
I stand in the shadows of monuments At any moment this will end My final breath Like embers turning to dust My body will dissolve Into the cosmic sea Fragments of our essence Scattered beyond the sun Into a cosmic sea A frozen symphony How I lust to breathe again
In total harmony Witness this machine Shift her wings upward
Can you hear her sing Can you feel her breath Defending what we call life
For the first time I’ve opened up my eyes
I stand in the shadows of monuments At any moment this will end My final breath Like embers turning to dust My body will dissolve Into the cosmic sea Fragments of our essence Scattered beyond the sun Into a cosmic sea A frozen symphony
How I lust to breathe again
\"Andara succumbs to cryoshock not long after she awakens.\"
6. Anagenesis
Exiled just above the highest clouds Endlessly searching for any sound As decades pass, we devour the outer rings Our lifeline dependent on in-situ utility
Orphans bound by the frozen sea We sail upon the shadows of this cruel dream The world below, awaiting the human seed In silence we sleep, oh titan hear our plea
We only dream within the absence of sleep Regaling tales of human cruelty
The day we relink with our god machine
We shall become planet bound
In the end, I must amend I beg of you, bury my flesh Beneath the soil of the world below This is not my home
We shall become planet bound
The elusive search for life Hidden in the blackness of night
Enduring the cruelty of time
Every moment consumed by loss This human slate grasping for faith Hope itself destined to be lost We kneel before those bound by frost`
We only dream within the absence of sleep Regaling tales of human cruelty
The day we relink with our god machine
We shall become planet bound
In the end, I must amend I beg of you, bury my flesh Beneath the soil of the world below This is not my home
We shall become planet bound
We only dream within the absence of sleep Regaling tales of human cruelty
The day we relink with our god machine
We shall become planet bound
In the end, I must amend I beg of you, bury my flesh Beneath the soil of the world below This is not my home
We shall become planet bound
7. Planetfall
This mortal shell Absorbed by the endless night Augmented life My senses come alive No memory The future unforeseen Forever linked To the protean machine
Unleashing a storm Preparing the swarm We humans set forth Blinded by only one desire We shall leave trails of fire
We ascend upon steel giants In our wake Clouds of fire
Unwilling to forfeit The only chance To escape the chains of orbit They shield their eyes Unable to recognize Their human god Standing upright I hear it breath I feel it’s heartbeat Forever linked In sync with the machine
Unwilling to forfeit The only chance To escape the chains of orbit
8. Progenitor
As specters fall from on high Trails of fire, dividing the sky Baptized within this moment We have waited a lifetime
We stand upon the soil In search of our glory Sing to the titanborn Sleeping within orbit
Consumed by the breeze I fall to my knees Never again will our home be condemned The right to amend This world we must defend
The soil beneath my feet Breaking away from me Tremors of the machine The air of this world Is now safe to breath
We stand upon the soil In search of our glory Sing to the titanborn Sleeping within orbit
Consumed by the breeze I fall to my knees Never again will our home be condemned The right to amend
Consumed by the breeze I fall to my knees Never again will our home be condemned The right to amend This world we must defend
