Envelope the world in storms After a great reprieve Chaos and terror breed in my lies I will make you believe Master of ancient darkness Who lives by the black decree Looms over dark, flashing upbursts In facilities unseen
[Pre-Chorus] A parallax is forming Within the Sanctioned Sphere A parallax is forming An oculus to the stars appears
[Chorus] Ultimate artificer You live to spread fear Usurp the world in silence Quelling defiance
Low orbit power grids Placed by the Cygnus Creed Were used as a docking point That I now oversee Lightning ignites the air A glimpse of the grand design Cumulonimbus cloak Sprites explode to the sky
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
And the Reapers fly in Soon, the cleansing begins And no longer we crawl Before we rise, many must fall
Obelisk to the stars Your shadow splits the graves Of the ones who lived for you They have died in vain Obelisk to the stars Your shadow meets my eye You are obsolete because I am What you symbolize
Cygnus exploits the alliance Cygnus demands compliance
And the Reapers fly in Soon, the cleansing begins And no longer we crawl Before we rise, many must fall
Low orbit power grids Placed by the Cygnus Creed Ready the power Ready the machines
