[Verse 1] Foretold by ancient tales A blazing skull for our sun Its light kept in the shadows Where we must stand undone [Chorus] Time (time) [Verse 2] A pantomime of truth This naked soul revealed Hide it from my own eyes Lost within the chill We’ve soared beyond our fate Yet farther still to roam Ashes of a dying star That carved our hearts from stone [Chorus] Time (time) Children of forgotten stars Cinders drifting wide and far Children of forgotten stars We who fled the nuclear pyre Yes, we’re children of forgotten stars [Verse 3] Fall (fall) Fall into the dust A world ends in silence Bones ground into rust Then boiled by the burn But soon we’ll come anew Our embers reignited Prepared for round two [Chorus] Time (time) Time (time) Children of forgotten stars Cinders drifting wide and far Children of forgotten stars We who fled the nuclear pyre Yes, we’re children of forgotten stars [Verse 4] Rise (rise) Rise from the ash A phoenix forged in flame Rewriting our past We kneel among the ruins Where hope was left to die Yet cosmic echoes beckon A new star will soon arise
