Offworld

Offworld to a place where fortune lies
Far from this smeared neon glow and rainy nights
Down here
Where no answers were to be found
Driven to escape
Without avail and against all odds
A new life awaits you they preached
Asking where we will be
When all comes crashing down

If all lose ends meet, we must not fail
For with this comes the end
Swallowing us whole

We lay dying at the eve of our days
Beneath dimly lit skies
Brimming with life
As your blood ran cold
And my heart stopped beating
Now embraced, our mortal remains

Still we've seen
Like pyres on the firmament
These glorious bursts of posthuman transience
The scent of burning flesh filled our nostrils
A blissful feeling of victory pulsating within

It was a call of destiny
And we answered
We held the day
In the palm of our hand
Once echoing threnodies for the fallen
Now silenced by time

I'll tell your fervid heart what it was like to be alive
Of flashes of light
Piercing through the darkness
I'll tell of signs of struggle, now long forgotten
When memory has become corrupted
And we're long gone
