We never saw this coming
Pride comes before our fall
We never heeded the warning
Buried deep within us all
The age of shadows has begun!
(Giant machines blot out our Sun!)
Frozen minds becoming numb!
(The age of shadows has begun!)
The age of Shadows has begun!
(I won't accept what we've become!)
We stand to lose more than we've won!
(The age of Shadows has begun!)
Our quenchless thirst for knowledge
Our urge to change and grow
Our need to expand the nation (Our need for experimentation)
Made us rise from the depths below
The age of shadows has begun!
(Giant machines blot out our Sun!)
Frozen minds becoming numb!
(The age of shadows has begun!)
The age of Shadows has begun!
(I won't accept what we've become!)
We stand to lose more than we've won!
(The age of Shadows has begun!)
No more aggression! (No more initiative!)
No more suppression! (No more emotions!)
No more recession!
(No more of all the feelings that shaped our hearts and made us who we are!)
No more possessions! (No more euphoria!)
No more obsessions! (No more sensations!)
No more depression!
(No more of all the passions that shaped our hearts and made us who we are!)
Time
But a passageway
The beginning of the end
An end that never was
Time
But a curve in space
We are Forever
Eternal prisoners in time
We are Forever
Caught in our cold inertia
(Longing, hoping, waiting, for no one...)
Forever we yearn, forever we learn
Forever we live a lie, forever is slipping by
And forever we flee
Forever we be, Forever is but a dream
Forever is but a scream
And forever we try, forever we die
The spell of life wore off
The zest for life not enough
Longing, hoping, waiting, for no one
(Never enough!)
Zero (one) one (zero) one (zero) zero (zero)
(Zero (one) one (zero) zero (one) zero (one)...)
(Off (on) on (off) off (on) on (off)...)
(No (yeah) yeah (yeah) no (no) yeah (yeah)...)
Forever we try, forever we die
Forever, forever
Forever we try, forever we die
Forever, forever
Forever we try, forever we die, forever
Forever we die
(Longing, hoping, waiting for no one)
No more aggression! (No more initiative!)
No more suppression! (No more emotions!)
No more recession!
(No more of all the feelings that shaped our hearts and made us who we are!)
No more possessions! (No more euphoria!)
No more obsessions! (No more sensations!)
No more depression!
(No more of all the passions that shaped our hearts and made us who we are!)
The age of shadows has begun! (The ages of shadows!)
(Giant machines blot out our sun!)
Frozen minds becoming numb! (Blot out our sun!)
(The age of shadows has begun!)
The age of Shadows has begun! (Frozen minds becoming numb!)
(I won't accept what we've become!)
We stand to lose more than we've won! (More than we've won!)
