Products of the grand creator Inhabit this universe
In spectral dimensions, unfathomable to the human grasp
But they cannot be here, for the great expanse is much too vast
Across the dead region, none can go
No species will ever transverse the dark
Constructed, insurmountable from the start
Like a firefly lit in the night,
Its light diminishes and then out of sight
Out of reach before the flicker fades
Civilizations work this way
They rise, they fall, flourish, then become extinct
By the time you know they exist, they won't
No persuasion can warp spacetime
But for the fallen angelic lifeline
They lurk, they hide like ghosts, indistinct
By the time you know they exist, its too late
No persuasion can cross the black hole
But under fallen angelic control
They chose not to keep their first estate
Lightyears would take thousands of generations to overcome
Trying to harness power of a billion suns, it cannot be done
So they cannot be here, for the great expanse cannot be undone
Across the dead region, none can go
No species will ever transverse the dark
Constructed, insurmountable from the start
Like a firefly lit in the night,
Is light diminishes and then out of sight
Out of reach before the flicker fades
Civilizations work this way
They rise, they fall, flourish, then become extinct
By the time you know they exist, they won't
No persuasion can warp spacetime
But for the fallen angelic lifeline
They lurk, they hide like ghosts, indistinct
By the time you know they exist, its too late
In spectral dimensions, unfathomable to the human grasp
But they cannot be here, for the great expanse is much too vast
Across the dead region, none can go
No species will ever transverse the dark
Constructed, insurmountable from the start
Like a firefly lit in the night,
Its light diminishes and then out of sight
Out of reach before the flicker fades
Civilizations work this way
They rise, they fall, flourish, then become extinct
By the time you know they exist, they won't
No persuasion can warp spacetime
But for the fallen angelic lifeline
They lurk, they hide like ghosts, indistinct
By the time you know they exist, its too late
No persuasion can cross the black hole
But under fallen angelic control
They chose not to keep their first estate
Lightyears would take thousands of generations to overcome
Trying to harness power of a billion suns, it cannot be done
So they cannot be here, for the great expanse cannot be undone
Across the dead region, none can go
No species will ever transverse the dark
Constructed, insurmountable from the start
Like a firefly lit in the night,

Out of reach before the flicker fades
Civilizations work this way

By the time you know they exist, they won't

They lurk, they hide like ghosts, indistinct
By the time you know they exist, its too late
