Ayreon - The Sixth Extinction lyrics

1. Echoes On The Wind

[Tom Englund:] It's the calm before the storm
It's the quiet before the war
It's the time when all will be decided
[Steve Lee:] All will be decided
[Tom Englund:] If nobody hears the echoes on the wind

[Tom Englund:] It's the end of the chain
[Steve Lee:] Destruction of the fittest
[Tom Englund:] It's the end of our reign
[Steve Lee:] We've seen it all before
[Tom Englund:] It's the end of man's evolution
[Steve Lee:] The end of evolution
[Tom Englund:] For nobody heeds the echoes on the wind

2. Radioactive Grave

[Hansi Kursch:] Do you hear the sirens?
[Daniel Gildenlöw:] Do you see them burst?
[Steve Lee:] Do you feel the fire?
[Jonas Renske and Floor Jansen:] All the world's a radioactive grave
[Tom Englund:] I can hear them crying
[Bob Catley:] I can see the fear
[Jorn Lande:] I can see them dying
[Jonas Renske and Floor Jansen:] Washed away by deadly gamma waves

[Hansi Kursch:] Do you hear them calling?
[Daniel Gildenlöw:] Do you see them hurt?
[Steve Lee:] Do you feel them falling?
[Jonas Renske and Floor Jansen:] All the world's a blazing funeral pyre

[Tom Englund:] I can hear the wailing
[Bob Catley:] I can see the wrath
[Jorn Lande:] I can see them failing
[Jonas Renske and Floor Jansen:] Washed away by a scorching sea of fire

[Hansi Kursch:] Do you hear the sirens?
[Daniel Gildenlöw:] Do you see them burst?
[Steve Lee:] Do you feel the fire?
[Jonas Renske and Floor Jansen:] All the world's a radioactive grave
[Tom Englund:] I can hear them crying
[Bob Catley:] I can see the fear
[Jorn Lande:] I can see them dying
[Jonas Renske and Floor Jansen:] Washed away by deadly gamma waves
Washed away by a scorching sea of fire

3. 2085

[Jonas Renske:] Silence's so loud, not a soul left alive
Darkness's a shroud
2085
All our dreams have disappeared
They burned down the tree of life
Confirming all that we have feared
2085

[Bob Catley:] Don't give up, remember how we felt
Fire rushing through our veins
Now it's the time to rise up from our hell
Now it's the time to free our brains

[Steve Lee:] The meaning of life is to give life meaning
Go too fast, move too slow
Restore the balance between thinking and feeling
Open up and let it flow

[Jonas Renske:] No side has won, struggle to survive
Our quest here is done
2085
All our hopes have disappeared
Our race will not thrive
Time will not recall the year
2085

[Daniel Gildenlöw:] Don't give in, remember all we learned
The spark of life if did ignite
We regained the rage for which we yearned
We regained our will to fight

[Jorn Lande:] We must resolve this human equation
We're already dead if we don't try
To welcome challenge, genetic variation
Stop the machines, prepare to die!

4. To The Planet Of Red

5. Spirit Of The Wind

[Tom Englund:] He's the last man alive
[Steve Lee:] Searching for the answer
[Tom Englund:] Knowing he won't survive
[Steve Lee:] To the mystery of live
[Tom Englund:] Relives the past and dreams of the future
[Steve Lee:] Dreaming of the future
[Tom Englund:] And soon he'll set free
[Steve Lee:] And the sleeper will awake
[Tom Englund:] The spirit of the wind

6. Complete The Circle

Make us whole, Migrator soul
Follow you home, complete the circle
We must survive, restore our lives
The way I'll show, complete the circle 

Make us whole, Migrator soul
Follow you home, complete the circle
We must survive, restore our lives
The way I'll show, complete the circle 

[Hansi Kursch:] Send back visions
Into the past
Of war and decay

[Floor Jansen:] Hear the final cries
I can see the fear
In a world without walls

[Anneke van Giersbergen:] Through their eyes

[Tom Englund:] I see them dying
We have to teach them
Migrator soul

[Daniel Gildenlöw:] We will gain our will to fight
We're at the dawn
We found a way

[Steve Lee:] I know we'll make it in the end
Listen to the one man

[Bob Catley:] We gave them language
What did they say?
What did they learn?

[Jorn Lande:] We have no choice
We are the future
We are the pain
Complete the circle

[Steve Lee:] Ah
