lyrics

"Come in station command. This is Alpha X-1. We are approaching the event horizon. Engines are not responding. Requesting emergency procedures. Repeat. Requesting emergency procedures."

Frequency of emergency warnings
Breaking update signals
Error in discovery by man

Bizarre radiation uncovers the ghosts in the sand
Start the descent into the frontier

Movement and colours
Blurred by unsettled debris
Turbulent first contact

Shimmering field of galactic dust
Full spectrum of light pulsing on the surface

Down
In the heart
Beating at the end of the shadowy veins

Life
Spills out over the perforated subterrene
Then: a blast

E'rhis Kfa-ne
E'fel Ranas
Krah phrul manus
Ne phral
An-na

Sovereign of the Land substantiates
The rhythm of the ground beneath their feet

"Be without fear as you are welcomed guests.
The first of your kind to visit here.
Allow me to show you what you have travelled so far to behold."
