Lyrics
intro – alien transmission
low synth drone
"They thought we came to invade..."
"...we came to get high."
verse 1
We crossed dead galaxies
starved of sensation
immortal minds rotting alive
inside bodies that could no longer feel
Then we found Earth
Smoke in your lungs
powder on mirrors
fungus beneath forests
chemicals burning through human veins
You called them poisons
We called them miracles
pre-chorus
Every light above the highway
Every shadow beside your bed
Every impossible shape in the sky
Was another one of us
completely out of our minds
chorus
We never came to conquer mankind
We came to disappear inside your madness
To drown inside your chemical heavens
your cities
your neon dreams
The truth was never invasion
The truth was addiction
Earth became the last drug left in the universe
verse 2
One carved circles through cornfields
another laughed inside Arizona storms
some crashed ships intentionally
just to watch humans panic and pray
Governments called it contact
religions called it judgment
But we were just hallucinating beneath your moonlight
bridge
You think humans discovered drugs
No
You discovered keys
Tiny biological doorways
that let immortal minds feel wonder again
breakdown
NOT AN INVASION
NOT A WAR
JUST IMMORTAL GODS
ABSOLUTELY F****D OUT OF THEIR MINDS
solo – psychedelic shred
We crossed the void to feel alive
To become animals once again
To finally lose control
And somewhere beyond the stars
they still follow the signal
Because Earth is known across the universe
as the place immortals go
to forget forever
outro
"...don't tell them the truth..."
"...pass me another cigarette..."
