[Intro – Whispered radio transmission] Mission control, do you read? There's something moving outside. It's not on the radar. It's looking straight at me. [Verse 1] We left the Earth a million miles behind, With frozen stars and silence on our minds. The engines hummed, the instruments glowed blue, And nothing in the darkness seemed untrue. Then something knocked against the outer shell, Three slow strikes that echoed through our hell. The captain laughed and called it shifting steel, Until we saw the handprint on the seal. [Pre-Chorus] No signal answers. No stars remain. Something is calling Through the windowpane. [Chorus] Something beyond the stars, Something where the darkness starts. Watching through the endless night, Waiting till we kill the light. Something moving, something near, Something born from ancient fear. We came searching for the unknown, Now we're afraid to be alone. [Verse 2] The corridors are colder than before, And someone's scratching on the engine door. The cameras show an empty metal hall, But we can hear it crawling through the walls. My crewmate says he sees his mother there, With silver eyes and blackened hair. He follows her into the airlock bay, And all we hear is what he doesn't say. [Pre-Chorus] No signal answers. No stars remain. Something is calling Through the windowpane. [Chorus] Something beyond the stars, Something where the darkness starts. Watching through the endless night, Waiting till we kill the light. Something moving, something near, Something born from ancient fear. We came searching for the unknown, Now we're afraid to be alone. [Bridge – Radio transmission, increasingly distorted] Captain… the ship is changing. The walls are breathing. The stars are gone. I can hear it inside my helmet. [Pause] It's using my voice. [Final Chorus – Huge Dark Choir and Electronics] Something beyond the stars, Something older than we are. Every planet, every sun, Every living thing is one. Something waiting, something wide, Something with the void inside. We came searching for the unknown… [Outro – Whispered Radio Transmission] Mission control… Please don't send another ship. It's already here. [End – Deep alien drone, static, sudden silence]
