long time ago
a different place
the light vanished
in blacks embrace

disturbance in balance
prepare for the last dance
get lost in deepest black
no hope to ever get back
consuming step by step
one giant dark deathtrap
w:hole system in alert
process unable to convert

never seen a greater tragedy
the most beautiful death in history
but the shout for help transmitted
lifetimes too late

long time ago
in outer space
a star swallowed
without a trace

x-ray waves sent it all
a dying sun's last call
but Rosat and Chandra fail
collecting informations in detail
knowledge is imperfect
'bout the extent of the effect
was there a planet like our earth
maybe even populated by yourself

never seen a greater tragedy
the most beautiful death in history
but the shout for help transmitted
lifetimes too late
received the message 'bout your destiny
the darkest grave for eternity
but your shout for help transmitted
lifetimes too late
