haunter of the void - alkaloid lyrics

Loading...

starless the sea of the void
silently
from death*like slumber stirs
a dismal progeny

how am i here?

no body, no soul, no other presence
beyond my own fear
a battery’s whirr
vague luminescence

hapless and forsaken
castaway remnant
starving in starkness
last one alive

loath to again awaken
last desperate effort
thrown to the darkness
to survive

come now
evanescing
reach out
is a blessing
try at least
until the world rеturns unbidden
there’s nowhеre else
from waste and spit alloyed
bumbling through boötes void

a frail and futile ark
whispering to the dark

start from zero yet again

start again
one more time
all alone

what else is there?
might as well
till death brings peace at last

haunter of the void
fossil of a world destroyed

there’s no past, memory’s lost
time just rots away
as the aeons pass, unseen
by a severed brain
trapped in a tin can set astray
to the vacuum’s embrace
the mother world from which it hurled
long burnt and gone
its species extinct without a trace

almost nothing’s better than nothing at all
if i can’t fly then i’ll have to crawl
at the glacial pace
that my kit and charge permit

stringing molecule
by reluctant molecule
into wretched flesh

one more grain of regolith
on this wretched rock
that came from nowhere
that i have crashed upon

torn from my grave
waking to the bleakest sight
around me

epochs have come and gone and
have left me nothing but mere dirt and ice
to work with
one decrepit hand
smaller than a grain of sand
will have to do
all the heavy lifting

a micronic plant
in an electric ant
see if we can mend
the last wires in the world

a synaptic lattice grown
cell by cell starts to unfurl
and i come into my own

for billions of years
adrift and alone
weave thinnest of hairs
into flesh, into a home

around this orphan rock i curl

haunter of the void
fossil of a world destroyed

dormant compounds boil and swirl
maraud ray by ray
an ornate miasma

a most fragile array
that ablates silicates
by deuterium decay
slowly cooked
into virulent plasma

strand by emerging strand
branches, splits and cocoons
the insipid orb
of this godforsaken moon

grain by lifeless grain
feelers permeate, absorb
till the filaments begin to glow
as they probe and strain
a sentient embrace
clandestine in empty sp*ce

layer by layer
flaring with memory *
the first, smallest, most useless
unseen boltzmann brain
awakens

three*lobed burning eyes
open to the skies to see

lifeless chasms of the void

far*flung light
chars the night
sings of death and rebirth
