Ayreon — "Forever" Of The Stars lyrics

Lyrics

I am of the stars. I am called «forever». Eternity courses through my veins.
It is cold beyond
your sun where we come from. We seed the universe with the milk of a million
moons. You are that
seed. Your earth is our experiment. We vanquished the dinosaurs with the
careless trajectory of a child’s lost meteorite. We peopled your planet to experience your emotions —
such feelings
lost to us aeons ago. How we envied you your loves and passions,
your dangerous desires.
The fires of your emotions gleamed like lost beacons in the darkened depths of the fathomless
universe. And eight of you, plucked from Time. Not randomly, you understand.
Representatives of your world’s turbulent history. We have observed your tribulations from
nameless nebulae.
The experiment is over. I am weary now. So tired. I too am far from home.
Open the gate —
complete the circle. You won’t remember — you won’t recall — for I am only the
air that you
breathe, after all…
