01 - Cumulonimbus

We’re not alone in a wasted space
This is not some special place
Among so many planets and billions of stars
So much more than the Earth and Mars
The magnificence of the universe
Our blindness is like a curse
Thousands of light-years away
An advanced community in our way
Cumulonimbus
Darkening the sky
Inside those clouds
They all hide
Cumulonimbus
Announcing the war
Millions of corpses
Will cover the floor
In the speed of light, they’re getting near
To spread panic, chaos and fear
They’re out there and didn’t come in peace
Our species will be deceased
Twinkling lights appear in the sky
I wonder how long will take for us to die
The atmosphere is becoming cold
It’s too late now, we will be controlled
Peace was obliterated
Slowly we’re being annihilated
All nations armies were pulverized
So fast they didn’t even agonize
Blackout around the globe
Spreading chaos, slaying hope
Mankind on the brink of extinction
Life imitates the science fiction
Cumulonimbus
Darkening the sky
Inside those clouds
They all hide
Cumulonimbus
Announcing the war
Millions of corpses
Will cover the floor
We’re not alone in a wasted space
This is not some special place
Among so many planets and billions of stars
So much more than the Earth and Mars
Twinkling lights appear in the sky
I wonder how long will take for us to die
The atmosphere is becoming cold
It’s too late now, we will be controlled

02 - Uninvited Visitors

Uninvited visitors in my room
Moving under the light of a full moon
So quietly they force themselves in
I’m still asleep as they touch my skin
I woke up with four of them around my bed
I couldn’t move, I just felt like I was dead
Patiently, they observed all my skin
Their scientific experiments begin
Strobe red lights made me dazed and blind
Frozen tools start to travel through my mind
They’re fascinated with my anatomy
I’m paralyzed and I’m drowning in agony
Giant black compound eyes shining bright
A masterfully camouflage into the night
Long fingers with very sharp nails
Their skin is a frozen white pale
Communicating telepathically with my brain
They stimulate sorrow and pain
Injecting depression in my mind
Sadness made me deaf and blind
They introduced me new kinds of suffering
It tastes like sickness and feels like smothering
Four evil strangers observing my reactions
I wonder if they got self satisfaction
Like a strong sedative they fainted me
My eyes were closing and I started to feel free
I fall asleep, but they’re also in my dream
And even there, I’m not able to scream
Terror follows me wherever I go
My dark experience no one must know
Over my shoulders I look all the time
I feel them there, and they’re about to strike

03 - Death from the Sky
04:25
|
|||
A recent discover is about to change the history
Exciting and fear mixed around this mystery
In hypersonic speed, a meteor crashed the face of the globe
This strange rock was the home of bacteria and microbes
This harmless impact was completely ignored by mankind
A brutal mistake that would bring the man to a fast decline
Extremely resistant, the organisms survived the atmosphere
They started to proliferate and spread death, diseases and fear
A small ecosystem harboring chaos and suffering
People bleed through the eyes and die in total smothering
Protozoa, bacteria and viruses unite in one front
One by one they fall, no one escape from this silent hunt
They spread through the air and through vectors, extremely fast
Returning the world to a dark age, unthinkable past
A fulminant plague creates a final event of mass extinction
Humans try to fight, but we're all embraced by a strong malediction.
Condemned
By invisible enemies
Defeated
By microorganisms
From outer space
Death from the sky
Obliterate
We’re all gonna die
Newborn and elderlies are the first to pass away
Penetrated through the flesh, the eyes and the airways
The body invaders exterminate everything that breaths
Not even wars are so great with horrible deaths
Internal bleeding, multiple organ failure
Insane screaming, unnatural behavior
Mass suicide has become commonplace
In death they find a relief from disgrace

04 - Mortal Ways
04:31
|

Late in that night there was something in the air
It shivered my spine and I started to feel scared
I felt there was someone watching all my steps
The sky went red when I saw flying objects
It’s pointless to fight for survive
When they arrive
Immeasurable power
Willing to disembowel
Each and every one of his preys
Caught in Mortal Ways
Abducting and paralyzing
They torture and leave the dying
Above my head the unbelievable materialized
Though I was conscious I felt like hypnotized
A blue ray of light started to lift me to the sky
Fear overtook me and I urged to die
It’s pointless to fight for survive
When they arrive
Immeasurable power
Willing to disembowel
Each and every one of his preys
Caught in Mortal Ways
Abducting and paralyzing
They torture and leave the dying
Inside their ship they observed us all
Driving us from madness to downfall
Through mortal ways we are forced to crawl
Mass execution started at the nightfall
It’s pointless to fight for survive
When they arrive
Immeasurable power
Willing to disembowel
Each and every one of his preys
Caught in Mortal Ways
Abducting and paralyzing
They torture and leave the dying
Mortal ways
Mortal ways

05 - Operation Saucer
03:38
|
|||
In 1977, strange lights were seen in the skies of remote islands in the North and northeast of Brazil. Civilian and military reports confirm a hostile presence of extraterrestrial activities. The Operation Saucer is one of the most well documented cases of UFOs in the history.
In a small island in the North of Brazil
Mysteriously a man got killed
Went out to fish in order to survive
Throughout the night, strange lights arrived
The other fishermen woke up in pain
Burns in their skin, and confused brains
Confronted, one promised not to lie
All he remembered was a fire in the sky
Scared community
Reality or lunacy?
Operation Saucer begins
Unknown terror within
Rays of light hit the people under the trees
Marking their flesh with burns of second degree
Paralyzed, their blood was drained away
It feels like a game of hunter and prey
Praying to christian and indigenous gods
Demons or aliens, no one know what it was
Some evil spirit punishing them all?
The unknown and fear will make them fall
Scared community
Reality or lunacy?
Operation Saucer begins
Unknown terror withinSo many cases reported to authorities
Attacks happened in different colonies
Pain, nauseas, skin perforations
Electric shock marking the invasions
Hysteria spread all over the place
They said there was an alien base
They call the army to investigate
UFOs became secret of the State
Scared community
Reality or lunacy?
Operation Saucer begins
Unknown terror within
Soldiers and coronels witnessed the case
And disappeared without a trace
The high command gave them an order
Abort mission now and speak no further
Decades later, a captain broke the silence
Revealing some of the happenings in the islands
His reports were featured news worldwide
Two months before he committed suicide

1986
Lights spot in the radar
Airplanes or ships?
Colored confusing stars
Civilians and pilots witnessed
UFOs flying through the sky
The objects were too distant
No way to get nearby
Twenty one objects were seen
In SJC skies. Fast and unreachable machines.
The air traffic control guiding the hunt
Fighter aircrafts took off ready for confront
In high speed they approached from the area
To investigate and fight the unusual scenario
Target locked, ready to burst
The invaders disappeared like dust
Advanced civilizations
Modern, superior technology
Centuries ahead us
What did they come to see?
Illusory chase
Unfair air race
Humans wished to intercept their flight
In the official UFOs night
The air force didn’t even approach to the lights
They still don’t know what they chased that night
30 years later and the mystery prevail
A true story becomes a tale
People were fascinated and scared
None of them were properly prepared
To deal with this kind of worries
Or the conspiracy theories
Advanced civilizations
Modern, superior technology
Centuries ahead us
What did they come to see?
Illusory chase
Unfair air race
Humans wished to intercept their flight
In the official UFOs night
As they prepare themselves for the war to come
Wondering where did they come from
With speed jets and a heavy artillery
The air force increased the frenzy
Unable to approach from a single light
It wasn’t even possible to identify
In a blink of an eye they were gone without a trace
Far beyond from here, maybe returning to the space

07 - Extreme Home

Extreme home, a giant unknown
Land of thunders, sulfur and cyclones
Extremely powerful lightning hit the place
Its unique violence invades the space
A storm so old and insanely large
Repelling everything like a purge
Active over three hundred years
Three times bigger than the Earth sphere
Seventy nine moons dance on its orbit
Its composition verges on the morbid
The biggest planet on the solar system
A dimension mystic and twisted
Ammonia clouds
All around
The great red spot
In wrath was wrought
Total devastation
In the fastest rotation
Land of desolation
Infernal suffocation
Cataclysmic giant
Hellish climate
Jupiter, extreme home
X-rays dawn
Galileo discovered in the 17th century.
Four satellites on Jupiter's orbit.
Rewarded for his true devotion
He found a moon with a hidden ocean
Europe was the name that he chose
To baptize this big sphere that froze
Protecting all beings from radiation
And from inevitable mass obliteration
The hot core sustains life and evolution
In this alien liquid solution
A hostile environment of fight for survival
No peace is found in a place so primal.
Deep underground
Still not found
In dark waters
They wait to slaughter
Total devastation
In the fastest rotation
Land of desolation
Infernal suffocation
Cataclysmic giant
Hellish climate
Jupiter, extreme home
X-rays dawn

Billions of stars in the Milky Way
Older than us and so far away
Habitable planets that we can’t contact
We send radio waves hoping someone to answer back.
Searching the sky, a signal was received
So strong that scientists couldn’t believe
One radio signal that no one could explain
Yet, decades have passed and the silence remains
A paradox
Unsolved
Like a secret in a box
We face the unknown
Where are all the intelligent lives?
Already here, but they know how to hide?
Or maybe we are too primal to listen
And like always overestimate our cognition
They may have come here a long time ago
When human beings still didn't show
Or maybe we live too far away
Like in a periphery of the milky-way
The Fermi-Hart paradox
Still unsolved
Like a safe that is locked
Its secret is unknown
A paradox
Unsolved
Like a secret in a box
We face the unknown
The stars we see on a pretty night
Are not even close of all galaxy’s lights.
We’re a speck of dust among Sahara
A few seconds inside an era
Countless stars and systems like ours
Life probability has so much power
Many planets with twice our age
We couldn't guess their evolution stage
The Fermi-Hart paradox
Still unsolved
Like a safe that is locked
Its secret is unknown
Skepticism of some homo sapiens
Doubting the existence of the aliens
Putting the human on a pedestal
Egocentrism above all
They think the Earth is the chosen one
And only us have one big sun
The mediocrity principle tells otherwise
We are not the galaxy prioritized
