Watcher of the Skies (2007 Stereo Mix)

Watcher of the skies, watcher of all

His is a world alone, no world is his own

He whom life can no longer surprise

Raising his eyes, beholds a planet unknown

Creature's shaped this planets soil

Now their reign has come to end

Has life again destroyed life

Do they play elsewhere?

Do they know more than their childhood games?

Maybe the lizard's shed it's tail

This is the end of man's long union with earth

Judge not this race by empty remains

Do you judge God by his creatures, when they are dead?

For now, the lizard's shed-ed it's tail

This is the end of man's long union with earth

From life alone, to life as one

Think not now your journeys done

For though your ship be sturdy, no mercy has the sea

Will you survive on the ocean of being?

Come ancient children, hear what I say

This is my parting council for you, on your way

Sadly now your thoughts turn to the stars

Where we have gone, you know you never can go

Watcher of the skies, watcher of all

This is your fate alone, this fate is your own
