Searching for signs of life
a million miles away
I have arrived there now
To analyze and deplete
Sent down to earth
Crashing into sea
Washed ashore I open my eyes
The burning sun blinding my sight
I cover my eyes with these new hands
Staring down at my reflection from the sea
disguised behind a being that's not me
Home is so far from here
Soon I’ll depart from here
I'm walking through this unknown world
on a mission to destroy
Frail and weak behind this flesh
Simple thoughts of a simple mind
the fragile existence of mankind
How did they survive all of this time?
Home is so far from here
Soon I'll depart from here
I'm walking through this unknown world
on a mission to destroy
I rose up to my feet on that shore
a lonley sparrow decends on to my hands
and looks me in the eyes
From endless space I've come
Beyond the moon and sun
To drain your land of all
Time right here is done
I rose up to my feet on that shore
The lonley sparrow flew from my hands
Now my mission lies ahead
to gain their trust from behind this mask
Home is so far from here
Soon I'll depart from here
I'm walking through this unknown world
on a mission to destroy

The March to Oblivion
06:30

From the dawn of their time
a dark history of blood
subhumans with low instincts
praising their false idols
Raise the flags of wars never won
A species of pathetic fools
They build their towers to watch them fall
They are spiraling into doom
They pray to gods
who were never there
Destroying their own land
until they fade away
So the time has come
to take their pain away
Burning forests caused by man
Oceans of the dead
Stolen life of those who can't fight
The selfish ways of man
Skies turn black they cannot breathe
choking until the end
Self extinction is their decision
Nothing but their echoes will remain
They pray to gods
who were never there
The state of decay of a planet in doom
It's too late death will be soon
What did they do?
What can they say?
A soft ray of light appears through the dark
Like the moon she glows
The sun lights her face
Our energy connected from stars apart
The day will come when she’ll see behind these eyes
Time runs out, I’m conflicted to the end
She shines through dark, I’m conflicted to the end
Screaming through darkness, I’m conflicted to the end
Screaming through darkness, I’m conflicted to the end

Angel of Doom

A focus shift in me
As a broken world waits to end
Within my mind I'm confused and blind
Surrounded by her warming light
Her beauty within, within her soul
Begging me, begging me to stay
If she knew the truth
would she beg me to stop?
My mission was clear until I met her
Now it’s hard to turn my back
A focus shift in me
As a broken world waits to end
Golden love sent me
Two souls fly in peace
Her touch like a shot in the arm
a magnetic force unable to part
home is now far from reach
If she knew the truth
Would she run away?
If she knew the truth
would she beg me to stop?
Then without warning she had fallen ill
Helpless I felt as it was too late
My Angel of light, my precious treasure
Now ridden with guilt I reveal myself
Clutching her hand as she cracks a smile
With a final embrace and a last good bye
I gently took her life

The Ups and the Downs
07:18

It's cold at night without you by my side
The ups and the downs, this life can be so hard
Lost all fight in me
alone with no one around
Soon I'll be just fine
This world I'll leave behind
I'll take one thing with me
My memory of her
The tears they flow, this world comes crashing down on me
The beating sun, it shines, shining down on me

Weight of Two Worlds

My time on this planet ends here
I shall not return
Oceans will begin to rise, they'll sink
This tiny star
will die on it's own
Torn in between these two worlds
Something inside my mind opened up
I was engulfed with selfishness
Into the darkest realms of my heart
I got lost within this skin
Suffered a tragic loss but they'll never know
My lie,kept inside
Vanished, Out of sight
I'm turning human
Nothing to be had
Damage, can't be reversed
They're only human
Through the darkness love exists
Felt in my heart the pain and grief
Now I know why they cry
Lost within myself of who I was
My lie,kept inside
Vanished, Out of sight
I'm turning human
Nothing to be had
Damage, can't be reversed
They're only human
They don’t listen, they don’t care
They left their planet in dark despair
Long lost hope
It's too late
They burned the land, the seas have dried
But for her I would have stayed and tried
Long lost hope
It’s too late
Faced to faced with their greatest fear now they know
The weight of two worlds submerged in tears now they know
Now it's time to go
My lie,kept inside
Vanished, Out of sight
I'm turning human
Nothing to be had
Damage, can't be reversed
They're only human
My time on this planet ends here
I shall not return
A tragic end of life, severed
A blackened star
Spins through endless space

"As we await our last breath
Embrace the day holding hands
Don't want to leave your side
What's been done is sad, and cold
Hear our pleas of hope"
Hear them crying for their lives
Begging for forgiveness
Fearing armageddon
Wishing they can turn back the clock
Thoughts and prayers are lost in space
from the ignorant human race
A parasitic living disease
who cares less for their air, rivers, and trees
No return
Earth is done
No return
It’s too late
For two hundred thousand years
The start of their slow decay
Now coming to an end
to welcome a new species
Their fate is in their hands now
Life will come and go
Earth will continue to spin
in space among the sun, moon and stars
