Inside the singular point where the density's growing The power's compressed to a level it can’t take much longer Soon the core it will explode To unleash the creating chaos I'm here to behold So the power swells beyond Another universe is born The alpha event has brought The creation for us all An endeavour to eternity Forever lost in you A swelling universe my eyes can see An endeavour to eternity Forever lost in you Reaching far beyond for countless years Element structures from colliding quarks are appearing Throughout the infinite ocean of life they are spreading Led astray at a lightning pace Expanding fast to the depths without leaving a trace So the power swells beyond Another universe is born The watcher lives again To look out for this realm An endeavour to eternity Forever lost in you A swelling universe my eyes can see An endeavour to eternity Forever lost in you Reaching far beyond for countless years An endeavour to eternity Forever lost in you A swelling universe my eyes can see An endeavour to eternity Forever lost in you Reaching far beyond for countless years

A billion years have passed the elements have spread Creating space and time the silence lies ahead The dusk was left behind expansion sets the way And while assembling forms are giant cosmic waves Now I watch the universe The proto stars are given birth Fiery clouds will start to shine In cosmic inner fight The only hope for life What you see You can’t believe Stellar phase is here And settling the free space the galaxy clusters Become islands of light beams of the universe I reach out with my soul and feel the victory And celebrate the day of future legacy Now I watch the universe The proto stars are given birth Fiery clouds will start to shine In cosmic inner fight The only hope for life What you see You can’t believe Stellar phase is here As I drift through this place On towards the depths of space Without chains or boundaries I roam What you see You can’t believe Stellar phase is here

In the deep field where a star embryo burns A myriad of interstellar dust converge The certainty of life is what I'm looking for But I have to face it just to be sure Pulled by the gravity they shall not resist The surrounding haze is called accretion disc And the primary blocks remnants of the storm May converge to create a world of light I'm lost in the depths of universe I'm lost in the depths of universe Life's born and for that life I search I'm lost in the depths of universe All the beauty and the perfection that I see The infinity of stars the company I need I'm the watcher sentinel of space and time There are hidden realities for me to find Near a star in the main sequence An old planet called Earth is ruled by violence And they harm themselves make only the worst Don’t realize they're about to burst I'm lost in the depths of universe I'm lost in the depths of universe Life's born and for that life I search I'm lost in the depths of universe And they harm themselves make only the worst Don’t realize they're about to burst I'm lost in the depths of universe I'm lost in the depths of universe Life's gone and for new life I search I'm lost in the depths of universe

Swell, now it's time to swell The massive star is running Low on hydrogen Red, the dying giant's red The final hour's near Destruction everywhere Premonition of the end in a supernova blast Blown to a thousand pieces in a giant cloud of gas Leaving just a speck behind a tiny little heavy point But with such a gravity that it turns into a black hole Due to nature sake The monster will awake Stand before the unknown A great path into demise Point of no return That imprisons even light Gate, portal to a secret place Where everything can happen A different time and space Dive, prepared to take a dive Into the spinning chaos Of a former star that died With another physics laws and exotic new life forms Maybe dark and grim dimensions no mortal could behold Even though amazing things my eyes have seen before I can't deny the will I feel to go into its black core Due to nature sake The monster will awake Stand before the unknown A great path into demise Point of no return That imprisons even light Legacy of a dying star

There's a small place Where theory fits no more What lies beyond That's something no one knows So I reach out to the highs And prepare to take the gap The strengths of tide Proceed their mortal coil The time slows down Next to the core I roam There's a black point just ahead With a hunger that can't be fed Near the portal there's a gap in time and space Where the future and the past collide Through a dark event horizon I have felt And the outer limits I defy Reach beyond the line There's a small place Where nothing can survive There's nothing safe Close to the strength of tide Slipping through the narrow shaft Is this real will I regret? Near the portal there's a gap in time and space Where the future and the past collide Through a dark event horizon I have felt And the outer limits I defy Reach beyond the line I'm burning up inside with reality While darkness spreads around me like disease Beyond anything known A secret carved in stone The laws of universe (are) revealed to me Where the future and the past collide Through a dark event horizon I have felt And the outer limits I defy Reach beyond the line

I set the candles alight For I have chosen the night The powers of the unknown That sparks and shines All emotions set free The shadows can see The forces of darkness Dwells in me Meditation! Nightsky! Above and below Oh can't you see The creatures of the unknown speaks to me Oh can't you fell The unknown, the red eyes and the beast I touch the formless night As it devours all light It sweaps across the darkness With blazing might The astral plane It's powers shall reign As the forces of darkness Is unchained Meditation! Nightsky! Above and below Oh can't you see The creatures of the unknown speaks to me Oh can't you fell The unknown, the red eyes and the beast I see faces Forming in the night They give me knowledge They take me to hell Beyond! Oh can't you see The creatures of the unknown Oh can't you see The creatures of the unknown speaks to me Oh can't you fell The unknown, the red eyes and the beast

Expanding wide a golden age arises Throughout millennia of peace and harmony And worlds of light are struck by fear Another generation's drawing near Tears for the unknown worlds that lie beyond Are condemned to destruction and despair And countless stars that live and die Throughout the universe they leave their scars Through an empire of eternities Time fades away Follow its course Through an empire of eternities The golden age A billion years from now I'll still be here Watching over everything until it disappears No matter how much this realm may last I'll be the witness of its final steps The time is set with no regret I wonder through the darkest depths The sands of time they leave their marks What seems to be infinite also dies Through an empire of eternities Time fades away Follow its course Through an empire of eternities The golden age

Now I know A new cycle for us lies beyond The swelling force is weaker The global mass is much too strong Dark desire I foresee what lies at hand There's destruction In the future far ahead Generations of stars Witness this event at last The far limits of space Drawing back into the past Dark desire I foresee what lies at hand There's destruction In the future far ahead Expansion breaks the rhythm The gravity is strong Gravity's triumph Expansion breaks the rhythm The gravity is strong

As the nature cries All the future tears apart Requiem for the stars It's a story left untold For ages I have watched over the stars Memories and sorrows lying deep in my heart Condemned to witness natures final scream They are not above the things that have to end As the nature cries All the future tears apart Requiem for the stars It' a story left untold Now I see it comes to pass Now I see it comes to pass As the nature cries All the future tears apart Requiem for the stars It' a story left untold

White dwarfs and spinning pulsars spread across the space I prevail with memories of chaos and disgrace The gravity is fading the hierarchy is over Scattered galaxies of darkness fall under disorder A feeling of great loss But it cannot be stopped Entropy's arising Driving me insane The universe is slowly dying I carry the burden Heavy and unfair Witness of a tragic end Final wastes of heat that fade, absorption ending days The temperature is lower than ever; the light has gone astray A final question lies unanswered "did it had to be this way?" In this moment there's no order, only apathy A feeling of great loss But it cannot be stopped Entropy's arising Driving me insane The universe is slowly dying I carry the burden Heavy and unfair Witness of a tragic end Entropy's arising Driving me insane The universe is slowly dying I carry the burden Heavy and unfair Witness of a tragic end

Once a realm so proud Filled with life and light Now there's not a single being alive Now remains of matter That are still untouched They're all lead astray The decay's like a curse For a moment only wish to disappear All the anger and despair Driven towards an innocent eternity In a future that is close I will be free Plunged into the dusk A vastness filled with dust Disappearing without a groan or cry Now remains of matter In a single fall They were born by fire But die in the cold For a moment only wish to disappear All the anger and despair Driven towards an innocent eternity In a future that is close I will be free All remains of matter That are still untouched They're all lead astray The decay's like a curse For a moment only wish to disappear All the anger and despair Driven towards an innocent eternity In a future that is close I will be free

See the realm in its burning ruins In a chaos ending burst I knew this had to end So now I can transcend In a time so full of life Once a universe of light Only cold remains A universe in chains A trial by fire Death is only a transition Not the end Not the end Dreams of twilight Shadows that forecast the end It's the omega event See the realm so cold and dead A massive black hole lies ahead Something never seem The end is cold and grim Final agony of nature In a moment I am gone Just a final strike Takes away my life A trial by fire Death is only a transition Not the end Not the end Dreams of twilight Shadows that forecast the end It's the omega event The omega event has come to put an end to all And one day the circle will repeat The watcher will (be) reborn Dreams of twilight Shadows that forecast the end It's the omega event
