[Intro] [distorted electric guitar riff, steady drum beat] [Verse 1] [gritty male vocals] A strange sensation As I face annihilation It was a matter of life and death That day I lost my breath [full band, driving energy] Couldn't make it to the stargate No place to hide From the hand of fate [Instrumental Break] [melodic guitar solo with wah-wah and delay] [Chorus] I could smell the smoke, I could see the flames The star that fell took my hopes away And I never felt so helpless Never felt so afraid [vocal intensity increases] I could smell the smoke, I could see the flames I never felt so helpless On that final day [Bridge] [bass and drums continue, guitars play sustained chords] I found myself trapped and filled with fear As I sensed my chances disappear Couldn't make it to the stargate (No place to hide From the hand of fate) [Outro] [guitar feedback, final drum hit] Couldn't make it to the stargate
