“The Fifth Extinction”
[Glimmer Of Hope][Anneke van Giersbergen:] Through their eyes we will see[Bob Catley:] With their hands we will create[Anneke van Giersbergen:] In their world we will be free[Bob Catley:] With our minds we’ll shape their fate[Steve Lee:]
Now the die is cast, the first step taken
A glimmer of hope lights up our lives
Visions of the past, dreams forsaken
Forming right before our eyes
We’re alive[Anneke van Giersbergen:] Through their pain we’ll learn to live[Bob Catley:] Remember all life has to give[Jorn Lande:]
Now the die is cast, the first step taken
A glimmer of hope lights up our lives
Visions of the past, dreams forsaken
Re-ignite the sparkle in our eyes
We’re alive! So alive![World Of Tomorrow Dreams][Tom Englund:]
I see a planet, perfect for our needs
Behold our target, a world to plant our seeds[Steve Lee:]
There must be life, first remove any trace of doubt!
They may all die, don’t you think we should check it out?[Daniel Gildenlöw:]
We have no choice, we waited far too long
This is our planet, this is where they belong[Jorn Lande:]
We may regret this, is this the way it’s supposed to be?
A cold execution, a mindless act of cruelty![Bob Catley, Hansi Kursch:]
In the World of Tomorrow Dreams, our future lies
In the World of Tomorrow Dreams, our hopes will rise[Tom Englund:]
I see mainly reptiles, a lower form of intelligence
Mere brainless creatures with no demonstrable sentience[Jorn Lande:]
What makes us superior, we did not do so great ourselves!
A dying race, imprisoned in restricted shells[Bob Catley, Hansi Kursch:]
In the World of Tomorrow Dreams, our future lies
In the World of Tomorrow Dreams, our hopes will rise[Derek Sherinian: Synth solo][Collision Course][From The Ashes][Tom Englund:] And as the smoke slowly rises[Jonas Renkse:] Our planet’s bare and cold[Tom Englund:] But as the black sky brightens[Jonas Renkse:] A wondrous world unfolds[Daniel Gildenlöw:] We’re at the dawn of a new age[Bob Catley:] As we hear the final cries[Daniel Gildenlöw:] Ready to enter the next stage[Bob Catley:] From the ashes we will rise[Steve Lee:] And as the smoke slowly rises[Hansi Kursch:] Our planet’s bare and cold[Steve Lee:] But as the black sky brightens[Hansi Kursch:] A wondrous world unfolds[Floor Jansen:] We’re at the dawn of a new age[Jorn Lande:] As we hear the final cries[Floor Jansen:] Ready to enter the next stage[Jorn Lande:] From the ashes we will rise![Glimmer Of Hope Reprise][Daniel Gildenlöw:]
Now the die is cast, the first step taken
A glimmer of hope lights up our lives
Visions of the past, dreams forsaken
Re-ignite the sparkle in our eyes
We are alive
