The X Factor of the Cosmos

V6

Planet X... The ninth planet... or a cosmic conspiracy? A shadow in the distance, hidden from our sight. Do you hear the frequency? The unknown is calling. A mysterious world drifting fast through the night, Making Earth softly tremble, out of reach, out of sight. Sounds like a B-movie script in the dark, Or is there a shadow that leaves its own mark? For over a century the theory survived, From dry mathematics, doomsday arrived. Conspiracies dance in the vacuum of space, While science is searching to find its true place. Planet X, the unknown variable in the dark... Planet X, leaving a gravitational mark... In the deep frozen void, so silent and cold, The greatest enigma the cosmos will hold. Planet X... Planet X... At the turn of the century, looking so high, Percival Lowell read the signs in the sky. Uranus, Neptune, they drifted off course, Pulled by the weight of an invisible force. Deep in the dark, a giant must reign, A massive disruptor we couldn't explain. Nobody saw it, no eye could perceive, Planet X was the ghost they began to believe. Planet X, the unknown variable in the dark... Planet X, leaving a gravitational mark... In the deep frozen void, so silent and cold, The greatest enigma the cosmos will hold. Planet X... Planet X... In nineteen-thirty, Pluto claimed the throne, But it was too small to stand there alone. By the nineties, the math was corrected again, The errors dissolved, the ghost vanished then. No shifting orbits, no giant in sight, Yet the title of Nine still echoes at night. Since sixteen, the theories are whispering clear, The edge of the system is far, but it's near. No photo is taken, no sighting is sure, Yet the spark of the science remains so pure. The edge of the system is lightyears away, We wander through shadows, searching the gray. Is it a myth, or a doomsday we dread? Or a piece of dark matter right over our head? The X will remain till the code is undone, Till the ninth planet rises to face the sun. Planet X, the unknown variable in the dark... Planet X, leaving a gravitational mark... In the deep frozen void, so silent and cold, The greatest enigma the cosmos will hold. Planet X... Planet X... Whether Planet X truly exists remains a giant question mark. Nobody has spotted it yet. But that doesn't stop top scientists from believing... That it's out there, drifting somewhere in the dark. Drifting... In the endless void. Planet... X.
