And we prepare for our end
We call out for salvation
A message to beyond
We made our mistakes
Polluted the land
Abused the people
We neglect and waste
Our destiny is upon us
This is our reckoning
As we look to the sky
They descend from the stars
Not our saviors
A plague for all life
Here to destroy
and to rebuild
The cycle starts anew
We thought this would save us
This...will now be...the end of us

The Edge of Annihilation
06:13

They are relentless
Cold and empty vessels
They calculate the path
To balance the equation
Fire rains down
And tears through the earth
As Chaos flows through our minds
A chorus of screams pierces the nothingness
There is no refuge
There is no defense
Fire rains down
And tears through the earth
These waves of flame and ash
Consume all the sky
Destruction of our existence
Overwhelmed by this insanity
We have lost control
We cannot escape
All will be lost
An eternity of darkness
We have reached the breaking point
Only a few remain
We arrive at the edge of annihilation

We must find the will to rise
The fate of the few is with us
Our only hope is to fight
To overcome this surge
We are outmatched
A swarm of terror
Turns into a wave of destruction
We cannot compete
Fear will free us
An explosion of light and flame
The crashing of worlds
All is cold
All is silent
We are outmatched
We cannot compete
We must find
The will to rise
Fate of the few is with us
The light in our eye grows dim
We must find
The will to rise
Fate of the few is with us
Our only hope is to fight
But we retreat to salvage our kind
The light in our eye grows dim
Turns into a wave of destruction
The sky burn anew
All is calm
All is silent
Our only hope is to fight

Ex Machina

Our time is done
A new path we must find
Embedded in our consciousness
A way forward but with consequence
An evolution of our demise
Our minds will form into one and not undone
Our flesh will be erased
Senses turned off
To survive our journey
We must face our reality
We merge ourselves into a new existence
That which is cold and so empty
Only one way can be foreseen
Our minds will form into one and not undone
Our flesh will be erased
Senses turned off
We leave behind
We forge ahead
From human, into machine

Life Prevails

We ready for our passage
As we ascend to the great void
Desolation amidst the paling stars
And we wander aimlessly
The search for salvation
To preserve the life we once knew
But we will not be the same
How do we go on
But we emerge from this darkness
A rebirth from our demise
We are hollow and without hope
We will be tested
Our loss permeates our being
A reminder of our failings
To grow into a new form
We must endure
This is the birth of our new existence
From chaos we rise
We embrace the flow of life
To face this eternity
The future is ours
The future is ours to thrive
The future has no form

The rebirth has ended
Our memories are burdened with loss
We remember the death and decay
The despair for all our kind
We know what we have endured
And we move forward unwavering
From thought to memory
As a collective we will persist
We will persist
Our conscious is an ocean ever flowing
We adapt to this new reality
A new life courses through our form
Our conscious is an ocean ever flowing
We adapt to this new reality
A new life courses through our form
Our cells merge into one
Pursuit of our new existence
We are a cancer to ourselves
We are now the plague upon creation

Awaken to the Beyond
05:50
|

Our eyes begin to open
And our senses begin to wake
The light fills our being
As we emerge from our sleep
A chance for redemption
A time to renew
Our failures were our demise
A chance to arise
From the depths of decay
Emptiness and cold remained
Hope for a new path forward
As we awaken to the beyond
Unable to grasp
The infinite in front of us
The emptiness is without bound
But a new life awaits
We think upon our existence
Selfish and without care
We were lost through our eternity
Wandering amidst the void
Darkness fades from our minds
Purpose drives our being
An endless array of wonder
As we seek out our new life
Our new life
