Fear engulfs the seeps from the stars   Into the essence of man   Taking its form the nightmare begins   Void of life and slowly consumed      We sleep, but for how long?      Cherished hope has wasted away   Until all that remains is a shell, a dull mass of grey      But still we fight   For existence, preservation and survival      And if we fail, what will be our end?   Close your eyes and pretend      There was once a way we could hide   Leave ourselves far behind   Until this will drain us no more   We'll reclaim what is ours      We sleep but for how long?      We fight for existence, preservation and survival      A final whispered breath...it leaves you now      And if we fail what will be our end?   Close your eyes and pretend   Close your eyes (those eyes) and pretend      A final whispered breath   It leaves you now   Ascend...return to us      A final whispered breath...it leaves you now   Ascend forever and return to us      A final whispered breath...it leaves you now      We fight for existence, preservation and survival
