Waking Mars Lyrics

The red planet
Deserts of rust
Parched sun on naked earth
Only rocks and dust

Under the surface
A secret inside the core
Life awaits
In silent caves to explore

The planet essence
Is pouring out biomass
Mars is now awake
After thousands years has passed

An energy impulse
Is creating life
A new ecosystem is striving
Claiming to survive

Growing, breeding
Evolution speed increasing
Genetic drifts and traits variation
A stronger pool for the new generation

New creatures rising
Unrestrained cell mutation
Menacing plant-life sprout from seeding
With the planet's power now they're feasting

Digging toward the surface
The growth accelerates
A new apex predator
Is starting to mutate

Photo-morphogenesis
Irradiated by gamma rays
A new breed is born
Subverting the DNA

A world of change and adaptation
Nervous tissues of new creation
Expanded perception to include all dimensions
From previous eons to future inceptions

They gaze upon the stars of night
Body limits in their sights
A sudden deviation in the course of things
While the planet's power pulls DNA strings
