lyrics

From science fiction to reality
A post-apocalyptic remnant left behind in the sand
Desolation from the creation leaving just a barren wasteland
Evidence of life is before us, no need for a chorus to make you understand
The truth of what can happen

Under the surface they hide, waiting for their time to rise
Concealed before your eyes - the power of deception
From the heavens they descended, our way of life now infiltrated
Without a clue for what's intended, society will be degraded

These unknown artifacts lay in ruins scattered across the planet
Landscape eradication leads us to build underground cities to survive our destruction

Leaving illusion to the perception of your mind
Out of sight they observe us from the anomaly that orbits the sun

“How do we kill them?” “However you can.” “Let's find a way off this fucking planet.” “That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.”

What you don't know doesn't hurt you now
But how will you be ready for when they attack?
Beneath the surface lies a key
Through the looking glass we found the answer, but kept it a secret from the public
For the fear that it may shatter the foundations of humanity

No!

A greater power is amongst us from the skies
We're just insects, discarded rejects
Specimens for their microscope slides
Down from the skies they came to enslave us
To do their work for eternity

“Earth. Man. Woman. Sense. Science. Fluid. Flight. Mars. Manus. Verse.”
