"We are on our way to the quasar, an object as bright as a galaxy. Our hope is that the quasar may contain an unfathomable source of power and peril at its center ... a black hole." "On our journey, we receive the radio emissions of a pulsar -- an imploded neutron star." [A. THE TAURUS PULSAR] |
|
Within a distant nebula in the |
|
Taurus zodiac |
|
I hear the wailing of a star, the weak pulse of a fading sun |
|
All its fuel is burning out and its light will fade to black |
|
I can't ignore its hopeless shout as it fires its death cry out in space |
|
A star in |
|
Taurus lights up and outshines the galaxy |
|
A fleeting moment of glory in time and space |
|
A supernova resounds, a desperate symphony |
|
Leaving behind a beacon fallen from grace |
|
Lift your head up to the sky |
|
And hear the faraway cry of a dying star |
|
I heard its message from afar |
|
A frequent surge of sight and sound |
|
We approach the fallen neutron star |
|
Spinning round and round and round |
|
We attend this cosmic mass and we hear its sad lament |
|
But even stars and planets pass in this cold and everlasting place |
|
Lift your head up to the sky and hear the cry... "We have encountered a quasar in the constellation Virgo. But does it really contain a black hole, the portal to our final destination?" [B. QUASAR 3C273] [Andi Deris, Lana Lane] |
|
Heading off into the core of a newborn galaxy |
|
We have reached a brilliant star-like source of energy |
|
This cosmic spectacle of radiance was formed |
|
Fifteen billion years ago when the universe was born |
|
To the quasar |
|
Beyond the milky way |
|
The redshift is high, a bright light in the sky |
|
To the dark star |
|
Beyond the light of day |
|
The gravity's high, a black sun in the sky 3 |
|
C273 As we approach the sea of light |
|
I'm forced to close my eyes |
|
I can feel the vibrant waves of centuries go by |
|
Then the pull of an unseen force is tearing us away |
|
Could it be we found the entrance to our passageway? |
