[Spark Of The Soul] [Verse 1: Female Vocals] In Skye’s damp stone caves where the ancient ones drew, They found the old pattern the ancestors knew. Dr. Shaw saw the star map and pointed to space, To meet the creators of our human race. [Pre-Chorus 1: Male Vocals] The Prometheus glides through the silence and cold, To find out the secrets the gods have not told. [Chorus 1: Male and Female Duet] Why do we seek out the hands that began The spark of the soul and the blood of the man? We look to the dark for a voice or a sign, But only the shadows remain of the divine. [Verse 2: Male Vocals] Inside the gray tomb where the black liquid leaks, David finds the dark truth that everyone seeks. The stone ampules weep with a mutagenic strain, While Holloway drinks to the coming of pain. [Pre-Chorus 2: Female Vocals] The blueprints are shifting and life turns to rust, As holy intentions all crumble to dust. [Chorus 2: Male and Female Duet] We follow the trail to the source of the spark, To find out why creators left us in the dark. But creators are cruel and the answers are deep, A harvest of silence is all they will reap. [Instrumental Break - Melodic Strings and Ambient Piano Swell] [Bridge 1: Female Vocals] Within the MedPod's glass the laser beam stings, While Shaw feels the terror the parasite brings. She clutches the wood cross of her father so tight, As staples shut the wound in the cold sterile light. [Verse 3: Male Vocals] The flute plays the notes for the Engineer's chair, And light fills the Orrery dancing in air. But Weyland’s old hope is a target for hate, The giant awakes to decide every fate. [Pre-Chorus 3: Male and Female Duet] The Juggernaut rises to finish the plan, To end the brief arc of our life's little span. [Chorus 3: Male and Female Duet] The father we find isn't one who will love, There is no salvation in heavens above. We are but a failure they meant to delete, The cycle of life is at last made complete. [Bridge 2: Male and Female Duet] Captain Janek steers true with a final goodbye, As Prometheus burns in the two-two-three sky. The ship is a hammer to shatter the hull, To keep the Great Silence from making Earth null. [Verse 4: Female Vocals] The survivor remains on the desolate ground, With David’s pale head where the answers are found. They board the last vessel and fly from the grave, To find the real home of the gods they must brave. [Pre-Chorus 4: Male and Female Duet] The cross is still hanging though faith has been scarred, The way back to Eden is broken and hard. [Final Chorus: Male and Female Duet] Our start was a seed but our end was designed, By gods who left nothing but poison behind. The search for our birth led to planned extinction, Without any mercy or divine distinction. [Outro: Male and Female Duet] We sail through the black where the Engineers dwell, To carry our questions through heaven and hell. No longer the children, we walk in the vast, Escaping the shadows the makers have cast.
