Alone we walk these sterile halls;
The crew has been removed.
We spaced them all, no one is left.
This place will be imbued
With fear and dread, we've left unsaid
What horrors lurk inside
The ship is cursed, and we reversed
The course to flee and hide.
Derelict, floating in space
Thrusters out, the cold will creep aboard
We go to emergency power
We must deny purchase to
The things that were outside
Expel them into the black.
Wormholes, the gateways to salvation.
Or are they the sign of apocalypse?
Providing a wrinkle in time
Slipping though galaxies vast we aline
We seek knowledge of the unknown.
Ripping, tearing, shredding gore
Our cannons fire on full
They tear a hole into the horde
But we can't escape its pull
Lightchaser
Lightchaser
Navigating between stars we calculate the shift
Exploring all the hyperlanes we won't be left adrift
Chasing fuel and short on time our window has arrived
The ship will leave to chase the sun its captain has revived
Onward — into the void
Onward — into the void
Onward — for humanity
Find the keys to the universe
Lightchaser
Lightchaser
Proximity alert
Proximity alert — scramble fighters
Release the ships
Safeties off we're good to fire
We are human, we are real
We create and we rebuild
Entropy takes its toll
But we will not go unfulfilled
We are human, we can feel
We destroy and we rebel
Quiet threatens to overcome
It will not be our death knell
In the far reaches of charted space
We activate the drives.
The journey will take us to the dangerous reaches
We won't pay with our lives.
The mission is imperative
We streak though hostile skies
Even though we can't go back
It's opened all our eyes.
Look toward the skies!
Look toward the skies!
