Once Human - A Legacy

[Verse 1] Towers made of glass and wire, Built upon an empty fire. Lost in data, deep and cold, Truths forgotten, bought and sold. [Verse 2] How to tell an alien mind, What it means to be mankind? Breathing stardust, love and hate, Monsters born of twisted fate. [Chorus] All the good we kept alive, Helped our species to survive. Once Human, we bear this grace, Soon into the endless space. [Verse 3] Architects of endless war, Always taking, wanting more. Empathy behind a screen, Ghosts within a cold machine. [Interlude 1] Darkness... Destiny... Hope... Future... [Chorus] All the good we kept alive, Helped our species to survive. Once Human, we bear this grace, Soon into the endless space. [Bridge] Creatures of the cosmic night, Deviants who seek the light. Tragic plague and perfect grace, Wandering through time and space. [Verse 4] Past the dark of ancient greed, Wisdom plants a higher seed. Bound to take the next great leap, A better human soul to keep. [Interlude 2] Wisdom... Evolution... Light... Eternity... [Final Chorus] What is it to breathe and bleed? Love is our eternal creed. Once Human, we bring this light, Out into the endless night. [Outro] Past the steel and past the rust, We are more than fading dust. Once Human, awake at last, Far beyond our darkened past.
