lyrics
I Flew from stars, by worlds I feed and travel forth and forth
Now it’s your time, you tiny sphere, let’s call you, say, the Earth
But something’s wrong with landing, I feel I lose control
The engine power’s fading, to that icy pole I fall!
Alive I’m waking up, I smell your bodies’ warmth, it’s fine
To know you’ll soon be shells for perfect life form:
Mine.
I’m warily lurking out, the price is getting higher
A pretty game is now about to start with ice and fire!
I feel your fear
I know your thoughts
I foresee your moves!
I hear you scream
You’ll soon be mine
I’ll taste your death!
You are suspicious, you are smart and deadly arms you wield
I’ll take you one by one apart, so not to be revealed.
Perhaps you trust in no one, but can you trust no one?
It’s not a paranoia, no place to hide or run!
I’m one and many separate, in whole and every part
To conquer worlds I use my trait, I’m perfect in the art
How dare they use my skill, against me for the test!
They check us all, my kind they kill, disarmed they keep the rest!
Beware of me,
You, miserable weaklings,
A lower form of life!
You raise my hate
I must prevail
But i cannot find the way!
I am too few in numbers, thus no chance to fight them straight
Hands tied I watch them turn to dust all those I could create!
Yet still it’s not too late, my purpose I can see
There’s one more me they isolated, soon it’s getting free!
With role of human gone insane, played in a perfect way
A precious gift of time I gain to use without delay
I've got some tools and gear for carrying device
Escape I crave to disappear this hell of fire and ice!
