Gravity Well

The fate of our home planet

Has been sealed since the departure of our mission

Born death to harvest the pioneers from the shadows

Without beginning or an eternal end

Trapped within a gravity well, there’s no return

No remorse for us, the intruders

Dreams become frozen nightmares, the horrors unfold

I stand on the edge of the world, watching

The end of man draws near

The end of man will bring earth carnage

Reaping the organic life

Resources and technology to sustain the endless race

They take each human, all sentient life

And drain the life force of each

Processed from within, decomposed while still breathing

Resistance, fight or flight, annihilation is the struggle

We’ve been watched, and guided

Down the path to ensure the harvest

Cosmic genocide
