If only the stars in the sky that night were not so bright.
If ours was not so far.
Only equipped with half the warning,
They press on with their interpretation of the cryptic calligraphy.
And their very existence as a species hinges on this victory.
Despite best intentions, their actions will be in vain.
(Do I lead these men to an early grave?) Will the struggle outlive us?
Do we destroy the deity for all mankind?
Flow like the water flee swiftly with silent grace.
(Before the longest wait for light)
Fear when his fists begin tightening,
Rage strikes down like lightening. (Ashes and flames)
The final passage they could not obtain.
If they voyage out to his domain,
They will all be slain; effortlessly, mercilessly slain.
They search for new life in a place that only offers death.
They'll never reach the shore.
Months and months pass out at sea, the men press on with the prophecy.
Flow like the water flee swiftly with silent grace.
(Before the longest wait for light)
Fear when his fists begin tightening,
Rage strikes down like lightening. (Ashes and flames)
Wait for the full moon with no stars.
With no stars.
Strongest the farthest from the sun.
From the sun.
The men arrived as Earth was at aphelion.
At the mercy of the sea
(God's have abandoned me)
Amidst the violent storm
They'll scream
(God's have abandoned me)
The God's have abandoned me.
The God's have abandoned us all
Flow like the water flee swiftly with silent grace.
(Before the longest wait for light)
Fear when his fists begin tightening,
Rage strikes down like lightening. (Ashes and flames)
Wait for the full moon with no stars.
With no stars.
Strongest the farthest from the sun.
From the sun.
