lyrics

At nightfall, gazing skyward,
he exults, godlike,
he projects himself upon the darkness.
At first light, gazing farther,
no sign of life...
still
Searching, for what he knows not,
and finding nothing.
Does what he seek even exist?
Did it ever?
Riddled with emptiness, beyond and within,
his search is in vain.
The void is a mirror
reflecting nothing.
Alone
Weightless
Burning
Stone
Life
Storms
Silence
Vagrants
Casting a swarm of machine seeds
of a new life.
Propagating like a plague upon new worlds.
Far outreaching fragile flesh,
Touching new worlds.
Inseminating celestial womb
With a new life.
