Fifty years
Without feeling the gravity under my feet
Fifty years
Since I left everything I built,
And everyone I loved, behind
Fifty years
Of silence
I can clearly remember
The day the world
Collapsed on itself
I can clearly remember
The mass panic
The mass graves
Our animals turned against us
And fled far from the cities
Later our trees began to rot
Soon gave bitter and wormy fruits
The streets were full of men in uniform
Who told us to remain calm
Later the streets were full of prophets
Who prompted us to taste the human flesh
From above
It now looks like
A blur dot
That glows so faintly
It was
Not a long time ago
But my home
Is now far away, far away
In space
No one can hear you cry
(No one)
Science Affliction
The heart of our vessel
Is a frozen cathedral
Where recumbant figures
Are peacefully plunged into
An eternal sleep
An eternal life
An eternal dream
An eternal lie
Waiting for
A permanent disconnection
I can't prevent from wondering
What happened then
Now I can't prevent from thinking
That my body belongs
To the ground
We left the chaos for the void
And there's no point of arrival
Up there
-Transmission-
-here is a message-
-from the stars-
-Can you hear me-
-I repeat
-Can you hear me-
It was
Not a long time ago
But the Earth
Is now far away, far away
In space
No one can hear you cry
(No one)
Science Affliction
From above
It now looks like
A black dot on black
And it glows no more
And it glows no more
-we are lost as lost can be-
-end of transmission -
