Zero Hour

Metamorphosis

Zero Hour


Part 1: Decent 
Deep underground it lies hidden and waits 
A demon seed man or beast a tragic fate 
A dark secret of one thousand years 
An experiment with life 
It revealed a deeper fear mans eternal strife 

Something went wrong so they hid the truth from it's eyes 
They starved it of knowledge bound it's hands and fed it on lies 

Deep in it's mind thoughts are suspended in hate 
A frozen tomb earth's womb a dire state 

Who am I what am I where am I 
I cannot see I cannon feel I can't believe this is not real 

A dark secret hidden far underground buried and left to die 
But time revealed a deeper fear it was still alive 

Part 2: Awaken 
The creature stirs and slowly lifts its head 
Not knowing whether it's alive or dead 
It sees it's reflection but cannot believe 
That the thing it sees before it has not one but two bodies 

I can feel you we seem joined at the spine 
So this is the reason they hid their crime 
Are you just a part of me or can you hear my call 
We must break free my silent twin and amaze them all 
Rise 

We can if we try leave this hell we share 
To leave to break free to get somewhere 
The deed is undone and the surface awaits 
But she fell from his grasp as the earth began to quake 
Deeper she fell until out of sight so he was left alone to face an eternal night 

Part 3: Union 
Lying on broken ground in the shadows never to be found 
Her daylight's night her world is cold 
Her spirit's lost a soul was sold 
A memory from birth or was it just a dream 
For in this world nothing is as it seems 

His somber face passes by feigns disgrace and dares to try 
Offering a word gets blank surprise 
Offering herself he complies 

He lifts her up she withers in his hands 
No words spoken for eyes understand 

He lifts her up to carry her away from the darkness to the light of day 
Across the fields of souls forgot through mountains of pain 
To the place paradise lost through the driving rain 
He sheltered she but they did not know that she gave him life and so now he must go 

Part 4: Solace 
-various sounds and chaos- 

Part 5: Ascent 
Skin to skin upon the ocean they embrace and sink into the sea 
Two became one but one had the notion 
To live for their self and be free 
Up from the depths a force it came the two that were one 
Were now not the same one spread its wings and began to fly 
One drifted away and began to die 

Become yourself and all that you are 
Set your sights no matter how far 
Become yourself and all that you are 
Set your sights 
Set your sights no matter how far 
Become yourself and all that you are 
Set your sights no matter how far 
Become yourself
