|
I see a burning streak |
|
in the dark sky |
|
The stars above are turning pale |
|
A faceless messiah |
|
beast from the outer space |
|
TV-legions all hail |
|
The one we've all |
|
been waiting for |
|
Is it here and now? |
|
With faces proud |
|
but the heart's grown small |
|
We stand in shaky reception |
|
Overloaded minds |
|
trying to predefine |
|
the moment of truth or deception |
|
The one we've all |
|
been waiting for |
|
Is it here and now? |
|
Will we be given an answer? |
|
Does it know who we are? |
|
Will we see a brighter future |
|
by the light of this star? |
|
The gods of billions |
|
will share just one fate |
|
Crushed down beneath |
|
the new one's weight |
|
Will we be given an answer |
|
if it knows who we are? |
|
Will we see a brighter future |
|
by the light of this star? |
|
Telescopes and glassy faces |
|
forced to touch and to feel |
|
Covering beneath the glory |
|
and the threat made real |
|
by the light of this star |
|
Will we be given an answer |
|
if it knows who we are? |
|
Will we see a greater future |
|
by the light of this star? |
|
Telescopes and glassy faces |
|
forced to touch and to feel |
|
Covering beneath the glory |
|
and the threat made real |
|
Will we be given an answer |
|
if it knows who we are? |
|
Will we see a greater future |
|
by the light of this star? |
|
Telescopes and glassy faces |
|
forced to touch and to feel |
|
Covering beneath the glory |
|
and the threat made real |
