They came like Shadows, Fast, Unseen
Inspired by the hard Sci-fi novel "The Killing Star" by Charles Pellegrino and George Zebrowski with lots of extra added human defiance and revenge! _______________________________ [Intro] ooo-ooo-ooo aah-aah-aah yeah, Yeah, YEAH! [Verse 1] We screamed to the stars, "Come and find us here!" Broadcast our lives, our hopes, our fear. Didn’t think they’d hear, didn’t think they’d care, 'Til the sky came alive with a deadly glare. One pulse of light, and our cities turned to ash, Dreams of empires buried in a flash. [Pre-Chorus] Now we're ghosts on a rock, clinging to the cold, Whispers of vengeance in the stories we told. [Chorus] They came like shadows, fast, unseen, Turned our world into an apocalypse scene. We were naive, thought we were strong, Thought you killed us all, we’ll prove you wrong. Out in the void, where the killers wait, We’ll sharpen our blades; we’ll burn, we’ll hate. [Verse 2] You feel the guilt when the silence hits, We danced too loud, like ignorant kids. Left our signal bleeding into the black, When they came, we had no chance fightin back. They weren’t cruel; they weren’t even mad, Just a predator’s logic—it’s all they had. [Verse 3] Terror grips tight when the truth sinks in, The universe doesn’t care bout where you’ve been. But anger’s a drug, and revenge is sweet, We’ll rise from the ruins and bring the heat. Every comet we ride, every shard of steel, Every broken heart gives us something real. [Verse 4] We’re the ones left alive, the forgotten few, Scraping out a life, here in the icy blue. We curse the stars, we curse our pride, But we’ll curse them louder for all who died. Call us scavengers, call us insane, But we’ll make sure they remember our name. [Chorus] They came like shadows, fast, unseen, Turned our world into an apocalypse scene. We were naive, thought we were strong, Thought you killed us all, we’ll prove you wrong. Out in the void, where the killers wait, We’ll sharpen our blades; we’ll burn, we’ll hate. [Bridge] Fragile as glass, but glass cuts deep, We’ll make them fear the things that creep. For every life they stole away, We’ll build a weapon to make them pay. Blood and fire on the cosmic stage, This ain’t survival—it’s fucking rage. [Verse 5] So here’s our anthem, our violent creed, Born from the ashes of fear and need. We don’t pray; we don’t forgive, We fight to die, and we fight to live. The stars ain’t safe, they’ll learn the cost, When you mess with the broken, the desperate, the lost. [Chorus] They came like shadows, fast, unseen, Turned our world into an apocalypse scene. We were naive, thought we were strong, Thought you killed us all, we’ll prove you wrong. Out in the void, where the killers wait, We’ll sharpen our blades; we’ll burn, we’ll hate. [Outro] From the ruins, we rise with fire in our veins, In the dark, we’ll forge our chains. Not slaves, not prey, not forgotten screams, We’re the killers now, haunting their dreams.
