Lost Adrift
05:24
|
|||
lost adrift in the darkness
the all consuming space between stars
tried to pull back the veil
never thought I'd make it this far
Here we are caught in constant motion
trapped like rats in this endless ocean
can you see the constellations glow
hear this silence reaping what we sow
what choice do we have but to fight on
but to sing our fallen brothers' song
We must not let their deaths be in vain
we must carry on through fear and pain
I fought hard searching for my bliss
she hangs suspended, motionless
we stood against the crimson king
still we hear the stars as they sing
lost adrift in darkness
the all consuming space between stars
tried to pull back the veil
never thought I'd make it this far

No Turning Back
05:14
|

signs of life flash across the screens
like a light in the darkest seas
a beacon calling to new shores
hope lives for something so much more
we set a course for this new system
wondering what they might think of us
approaching we quietly listen
will we bring suspicion or trust?
How long have we been gone
cast out amongst the void
relativity shown
has it all been destroyed?
All of our sensors springing to life
communications activate
monitors painting pictures of strife
signals hailing us from the gate
A hundred years have gone
lost out amongst the void
relativity shown
not all has been destroyed!
Out past the point of no return
in the vast silence we did burn
and from our last triumph we learn
that there's no turning back the clock
that there's nothing to sooth the shock
That there's only one path left to walk
And there's no turning back the clock
Out past the point of no return
in the vast silence we did burn
from our last triumph we still learn
there is no turning back the clock
there is nothing to sooth the shock
That there's only one path left to walk
And there's no turning back the clock

Light Of Day
03:15
|
|||
you greet me with the breaking dawn
the lines on your heart are drawn
light cast on the curve of your face
never thought I'd know this grace
The words fall silent from my lips
caught in my lungs burning my chest
the world sleeps at my fingertips
subdued by beauty from the day we met
you're all I see when I close my eyes
your glowing iridescence fills my mind
we can cast all our doubts away
bask together in the light of day
returning to my empty room
words float about against the cold
my head swimming with thoughts of you
til we meet again and our embrace enfolds
let this song last into the depths of time
sing away your sorrows
spin a spell 'gainst the shadows in your mind
don't let them get far no
returning to my empty room
words float about against the cold
my head swimming with thoughts of you
til we meet again and our embrace enfolds
The words fall silent from my lips
caught in my lungs burning the air in my chest
the world sleeps at my fingertips
subdued by beauty from the day we met

Violence
03:55
|
|||
Violence erupting from the abyss
scars of light rending through the blackness
blades towards this seething sea of hate
we have to stand and face down our fate
we hold no delusions of destiny
we'll keep on fighting just to feel free
even if this day only spells our doom
our spirits they can never consume
battle surging through the emptiness
now or never, all comes down to this
even as these hours all grow late
we have to stand and face down our fate
we hold no delusions of destiny
we'll keep on fighting just to feel free
even if this day only spells our doom
our spirits they can never consume
all around us tides of tyrants rise
we find ourselves beset on all sides
we hold no delusions of destiny
to survive we vie for victory

Triumph And Tragedy
09:28
|
|||
As summer begins to wain
the last hours of twilight burn and fade
I grasp at fleeting glory
and bear witness to this unfolding story
death takes us all when the clock strikes our time
brothers will fall as the cogs churn and grind
There's no promise in tomorrow
solemnly we sing for those who've met death
There's no solace from this sorrow
triumph and tragedy, our hearts bereft
even as we drive our foes
back across the stars
we hear the ringing echoes
of that day on Mars
cold winter gripping our hearts
but we all knew the risks from the very start
There's no promise in tomorrow
solemnly we sing for those who've met death
There's no solace from this sorrow
triumph and tragedy, our hearts bereft

Now we must pick up the pieces
the tempo of war increases foreverlasting
ships blot out their sun
blood runs cold it has begun
I suppose it's now or never
Flowing through this endless river
and it feels like we're standing still
we can only retaliate
we will be sure to seal their fate
caught between with no force of will
Can I be the hero that they need?
This war, my crime of passion
my legend, has been set in motion
I can't be the leader that they seek
despotic fools rule the stars beyond
ahead our path wanders long
surrounded by gods and kings
to rise they'll stop at nothing
I must be the hero that they need
I must be the leader that they seek
on the path forward there's no other choice
all the worlds will know the sound of my voice

Silence Painted Crimson
07:20
|
|||
battle weary, blood pumping cold
bodies scattered through icy fields of woe
inky black silence painted crimson
tyrant riding solar sails glisten
his forces rise we refuse to fold
daring down the advancing fleet of foes
here we will end his dominion
standing steadfast in our solemn mission
it's time to do or die, fall or rise
We'll give our lives to defend these skies
blinded by high hopes for life
We'll give everything to destroy his lies
We fight on
against the darkest night
we'll fight on
forever seeking dawn
we'll fight on
against the coldest light
We'll fight on
into the future we are drawn
future it is drawn
the future drawn upon our hearts
We shall crush your will
your bodies shall lie still
you dare to resist my wake
I will seal your fate
Man the solar cannons and fire away
make damn sure these ants never see another day
You will see that resistance is futile
I will burn away your wretched smile
We fight on
against the darkest night
we'll fight on
forever seeking dawn
we fight on
against the coldest light
We'll fight on
into the future we are drawn
future it is drawn
the future drawn upon our hearts
We fight on
into the morning light
we fight on
forever reaching for the sun
we fight on
against the hellish blight
We fight on
into the future we have won
future we have won
future drawn upon our hearts

Doubt
04:21
|
|||
Poison of doubt bites into my mind
blinding my eyes to the truth
lost down these dreary roads I wind
bleeding from the wounds of youth
don't leave me in this darkness
the silence here is deafening
the consuming chasm calling
abyssal maw opens yawning
will you find what you're searching for
or are you lost forevermore?
Your specter floats all dressed in white
helpless, it drained away your life
churning in my chest, this twisting knife
my resolve fails, breaking loose
heavy hearted, seeking eyes gone blind
if I could only have glimpsed the truth
existence feels meaningless
one foot in front of the other
my dreams, all hollow without her
each day flows into another
will you find what you're searching for
or are you lost forevermore?
Your specter floats all dressed in white
helpless, it drained away your life
flowers wilting away in my hand
I'm drowning in this rushing sand
my demons never let me go
I am left to reap what they have sown
and now I must walk alone
