Watcher of the Skies (Single Version)

[Chorus]

Watcher of the skies, watcher of all

His is a world alone, no world is his own

He whom life can no longer surprise

Raising his eyes, beholds a planet unknown

[Verse 1]

Creatures shaped this planet's soil

Now their reign has come to end

Has life again destroyed life? Do they play elsewhere?

Do they know more than their childhood games?

[Chorus]

Judge not this race by empty remains

Do you judge God by his creatures when they are dead?

For now, the lizard's shed its tail

This is the end of man's long union with Earth

[Verse 2]

From life alone to life as one

Think not now your journey's done

For though your ship be sturdy, no mercy has the sea

Will you survive on the ocean of being?

Come ancient children, hear what I say

This is my parting counsel for you on your way

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]

Sadly now, your thoughts turn to the stars

Where we have gone, you know you never can go

Watcher of the skies, watcher of all

This is your fate alone, this fate is your own

[Outro]

On your own dark road

On your own dark road
