[Intro] A signal bends the morning glass A face arrives before we ask [Verse 1] You came through the museum door With dust from places not yet born Your coat was cut from silver thread You knew the names inside my head [Pre-Chorus] No engine sound, no falling flame You wore my eyes and spoke my name [Chorus] Ultra terrestrials, crossing the wire Built from the future, carrying fire They are us, they are you They are me coming through Ultra terrestrials, quiet and near The stranger I become is standing here [Verse 2] A child drew maps across the floor Of rooms we hadn't built before The paper smelled of rain and stone The smallest hand became my own [Pre-Chorus] Your pulse kept time beneath your sleeve A borrowed heart I can't retrieve [Chorus] Ultra terrestrials, crossing the wire Built from the future, carrying fire They are us, they are you They are me coming through Ultra terrestrials, quiet and near The stranger I become is standing here [Bridge] If I erase you, do I disappear? If I embrace you, do I end up here? The answer moves beneath the skin The future wears the face I'm in [Final Chorus] Ultra terrestrials, crossing the wire Built from the future, carrying fire They are us, they are you They are me coming through Ultra terrestrials, no longer strange Your hands are mine, but time has changed [Outro] A signal bends the morning glass I watch myself walk through the past
