Ayreon
Deathcry of a Race
[President: Russell Allen]
It’s time to awaken, the journey’s almost done
The quest is over, a new one’s begun
And when we reach our destination, our lives won’t be the same
We’re on our own now and free of the ‘Frame

[Captain: Tobias Sammet]
We’re closing in on Sirrah’s halo
Behold the glow of our new sun
An arc of light, a cosmic rainbow

[Captain and Biologist: Tobias Sammet & Floor Jansen]
But far beyond, buried in space
I hear the deathcry of a race

[Opposition Leader: Tommy Karevik]
Alpha is shattered, their suffering is done
The trial is over and nobody’s won
We’ve got a brand new world at our disposal
This time we’ll do it right
We're starting over and no one will die!

[Captain: Tobias Sammet]
We’re closing in on Sirrah’s halo
Behold the glow of our new sun
An arc of light, a cosmic rainbow
[Captain and Biologist: Tobias Sammet & Floor Jansen]
But far beyond, buried in space
I hear the deathcry of a race

[Preacher: Zaher Zorgati]
وقال يجب ألا يكون هناك ضوء وكان هناك ضوء

[Counselor and Biologist: Simone Simons & Floor Jansen]
Time halts as we yearn for the fallen, souls weep as we grieve for the dead
Hearts bleed as we cry our last goodbye, in our hearts they will never die

[Preacher: Zaher Zorgati]
Fa kaala falyakon nur fa kena nur

[Counselor and Biologist: Simone Simons & Floor Jansen]
Fire dies as we mourn for the perished, love drowns as we ache for the lost
Life stops as we cry our last goodbye, in our hearts they will never die

[Biologist, Opposition Leader and both: Floor Jansen & Tommy Karevik]
Ooooh, I can see our future star
We’re closing in on Sirrah’s halo
I can feel the force within her heart
Behold the glow of our new sun
I can feel her rays caress my skin
An arc of light, a cosmic rainbow
I can feel her power draw me in
But far beyond, buried in space
I hear the death cry of a race
