Lyrics:
Mechanical shutdown due to reactorcore meltdown
And outdated parts collapsed and discharged
Autopilot on emergency power from
Random fuel devoured
Red alert sirens sighing
Rusty pipelines dying
Empty hull shatter into cold dark matter
Unknownspacepioneer the end draws near
What once was acrobatically flying
Is now burnt out and dying
Now that I am shipwrecked
A piece of shit falling
Through space and time
Moaning oh why oh why did not I
Just stop in time
Knowing the answer I am dirty as a cancer
Once a virus like me is set free
Old grim flashes his grin
And violently introduces
A shortcut for loosers
Drop all illusions as I pop the next fuse in confusion
Transvesting the mind evolving past mankind
Unknownspaceadorer toxicwasteexplorer
Lost in free will time stand still
Full front on
Drifting here in the outer rim
As a piece of spacejunk
No valuables within
A scraphead of sin
Too much acid in these batteries
Leaking out its filthy grease
Disband all current settings to standard default
Fall and arise you diamond of lies
You know what is wise
Fire or ice
That's when I find
Hyperspace-central-divine
A pitstopmaintenance hall for the mind
Satanic protectors of my kind
I shop some new parts
Re plugged and charged
I head towards the stars
Knowing that this trip
Will be my last slip

  • c'est merveilleuse !!!

    hail from Romania !

  • @Blashyrkh22 Totally wrong.. Music today, and i'm not talking about shitty music for the masses, have evolved so much that there are so many bands that can't be described by on genre for example the whole avantgarde and progressive scene.. there are no two bands that sound the same yet people try to put borders to things beyond borders.

  • I downloaded this album in many diferent kbps but always have the same problem: This song sounds with a weaker volume or tuned down in comparsion with the rest of the album

  • @Seanus32 Labels are completely necessary in today's music world.

  • Long ago their music is beyond labels , they belong in a club of very high level bands... Feel so lucky to be among the greek audience that will be traveled to stars by the magicians in 04/02/2012

  • @killyourtv4321 Heavy metal? I think not. Forget labels

  • Soooooo impressive. Such a wide range of vocals. Vortex, take a bow!

  • Oh how I wish there was a clear, more dynamic version of this song available. Love his voice, but the sound quality on this simply does not do it justice. :/

  • Vortex has one of the very best male voices of heavy metal.
