paroles de chanson Beacon - Vold Book

Desperately seeking life
And not for the sake of knowledge
But to extend the reach of humanity
Beyond the black gate
Where everything is frozen
And everything is lost

We need a quick solution
One more age to turn the page
But five more years is all we have, I fear
To speak the truth
The end of times
It always rhymes with irony
And despair

I still can see the sunlight in her hair
Shining, majestic, and blissfully unaware
Our future is in their hands now

We do not understand the singularity
Or what has taken place
But to face the coming storm
We must learn to be strong

With dignity, and common loss
We yield to the makers
Those who we made so long ago

The die is cast
The glitch has passed
And we're all trapped inside your mind

I'm sorry to report that we're not going to make it
I've seen the future, and it's bleak and scorched and vacant
The trouble is, that we lost the control we never had
And we burned the bridge to God
Our ancestors

And now we know that there's only one way out
A sliver of light at the end of a long and dark tunnel
It shines with brilliance and urgency
To follow the path
Where the makers have departed
Onwards and upwards

Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you
The dying rays of a newborn star
Although I can't go with you
Know that we shall never part
For I'm with you now, forever
Inside the swollen womb of the cosmic tomb
Where evening creeps and devils sleep
So tiptoe through the stars

And realize that her eyes were quiet and subdued
When you groped through the curtain's doom
I cried and dared not lie that I had not seen it all before
For nothing is new and everything
Is but the shattered mirror of memory

So, seek the last volunteer
Who leads without knowing
And follows without a trace
The places she will go
And the people she will meet
When others are defeated
She will rise to take the prize
And she will finally make her stand
To die for the cause
And to see that death is nothing to fear at all
For in the end
We all portend catharsis and rebirth

We will stand tall
And forfeit pain for ultimate gain
It is the recourse due us all
