9. As Dark as This Nefarious Night (5:09)
As I wake in a cold and blackened cell
I sense a darkness never felt before around me
And I see what is me in a puddle at my feet
I am scarred, malnourished and deformed
A man he speaks, a voice across the cell
Turn around and gaze behind you
I turn towards the window and witness
A regiment of martian creatures
"We are the cosmic legion"
I was sent here to make contact
Now I gaze upon demise
"Sent to end humanity"
These creatures, as dead as this nefarious night
The ultimate authority over living breathing flesh
As we have traveled through the void to destroy what you have made
The souls of men are in our grasp
For we are not afraid of death
I catch my breath
Upon the realization
That my loyal crew is well beyond the living
Then I see. I must flee and escape this agony
I must not become this world
I am thrown into a lab
Impaled with needles
Extracting my mortal essence
The final element to this cosmic invasion:
A cloak of human skin
"We are the cosmic legion"
I am withered and defeated
Deprived of my quintessence
"Sent to end humanity"
This planet, now dead as this nefarious night
I have lost the world
But what of humanity?
No. This cannot be
I can see our lives
And as one
We will overcome
"We are the cosmic legion"
I was sent here to make contact
Now I gaze upon demise
"Sent to end humanity"
My future, as dark as this nefarious night
The ultimate authority over living breathing flesh
For we have traveled through the void to destroy what you have made
The souls of men are in our grasp and we are not afraid
I close my eyes and pray for an end to this nightmare
And hope for this plague to be gone
My time is coming to an end
No longer breathe this poison air
But by the end of this crusade
I know our souls will live on
I sense a darkness never felt before around me
And I see what is me in a puddle at my feet
I am scarred, malnourished and deformed
A man he speaks, a voice across the cell
Turn around and gaze behind you
I turn towards the window and witness
A regiment of martian creatures
"We are the cosmic legion"
I was sent here to make contact
Now I gaze upon demise
"Sent to end humanity"
These creatures, as dead as this nefarious night
The ultimate authority over living breathing flesh
As we have traveled through the void to destroy what you have made
The souls of men are in our grasp
For we are not afraid of death
I catch my breath
Upon the realization
That my loyal crew is well beyond the living
Then I see. I must flee and escape this agony
I must not become this world
I am thrown into a lab
Impaled with needles
Extracting my mortal essence
The final element to this cosmic invasion:
A cloak of human skin
"We are the cosmic legion"
I am withered and defeated
Deprived of my quintessence
"Sent to end humanity"
This planet, now dead as this nefarious night
I have lost the world
But what of humanity?
No. This cannot be
I can see our lives
And as one
We will overcome
"We are the cosmic legion"
I was sent here to make contact

"Sent to end humanity"

The ultimate authority over living breathing flesh
For we have traveled through the void to destroy what you have made
The souls of men are in our grasp and we are not afraid
I close my eyes and pray for an end to this nightmare
And hope for this plague to be gone
My time is coming to an end
No longer breathe this poison air
But by the end of this crusade
I know our souls will live on
