Exterminate the Stars

(Verse 1) From Skaro’s vault a metal army wakes, A chilling metallic clatter that the silence breaks. Enclosed in casing, stripped of heart and soul, They march to make the galaxies their goal. No mercy echoes through the silver shell, Just cold mechanics forged in deepest hell. They eye the cosmos with a hateful glare, And spread their terror through the freezing air. (Chorus) Exterminate! the iron armies cry, As burning planets light the darkened sky. The universe is trembling at the sound, As every empire crashes to the ground. Can anything withstand the ruthless doom, Or will the shadows swallow up the room? (Verse 2) Across the stars the dread armada sails, A creeping darkness where compassion fails. They sweep the nebulae with blinding fire, And burn away each galaxy and spire. To them, creation is a fractured flaw, To be erased by their supreme decree and law. One single purpose drives the iron horde: To leave the universe unmade, ignored. (Chorus) Exterminate! the iron armies cry, As burning planets light the darkened sky. The universe is trembling at the sound, As every empire crashes to the ground. Can anything withstand the ruthless doom, Or will the shadows swallow up the room? (Verse 3) Yet in the middle of the cosmic fray, A lonely traveler steps into the way. No army marches right beside his side, Just quick intelligence and open pride. He looks the terror in its single eye, And tells the metal giants they must try— "You cannot conquer what you cannot break, Or steal the freedom that the living make!" (Chorus) Exterminate! the iron armies cry, As burning planets light the darkened sky. The universe is trembling at the sound, As every empire crashes to the ground. Can anything withstand the ruthless doom, Or will the shadows swallow up the room? (Verse 4) The laser blasts rebound upon the shield, The proud commanders forced at last to yield. For hatred builds a cage of its own design, While hope outlasts the coldest, darkest line. Though worlds are battered and the wounds run deep, A silent promise does the traveler keep— That life will blossom where the ashes fall, And love will stand when iron empires stall. (Chorus) Exterminate! the iron armies cry, As burning planets light the darkened sky. The universe is trembling at the sound, As every empire crashes to the ground. Can anything withstand the ruthless doom, Or will the shadows swallow up the room? (Verse 5) The war may echo through the endless blue, Yet every cosmos gets a start anew. The shell may shatter and the threat may fade, As sunlight stretches where the dark delayed. So let the stars sing out a steady praise, For life outlasts the coldest, cruelest days. The traveler turns and steps into the light, To guard the universe another night. (Chorus) Exterminate! the iron armies cry, As burning planets light the darkened sky. The universe is trembling at the sound, As every empire crashes to the ground. Can anything withstand the ruthless doom, Or will the shadows swallow up the room?
