Titanium Sky
Azakir Devaris

Performed in Febraury 2005 at Dixseption

No stars will shine for me tonight
No sun, no moon, just fluorescent light
No clouds and no rain, no birds ever fly
I'm living beneath a titanium sky

The land outside is barren and black
And wish as we may, there's no going back
For to venture outside is surely to die
So we all stay beneath our titanium sky

The end finally came as most had forseen
When the heavens were seared by pillars of flame
And what wasn't burned in the heat of the fire
Was corrupted forever by poisonous rain
And those that survived all envied the dead
Facing the hell on Earth that remained
And so one by one, all of us were then led
To the dome in the wasteland, where we were contained

No stars will shine for me tonight
No sun, no moon, just fluorescent light
No clouds and no rain, no birds ever fly
I'm living beneath a titanium sky

I suppose it's not bad to live in this dome
At least we are safe from the terrors outside
Our air is kept pure, our water recycled
For to use those beyond would be suicide
We make what we can of whatever we find
Wondering if anyone else has survived
And time and again, we are forced to concede
That each day we make is a gift in disguise

The land outside is barren and black
And wish as we may, there's no going back
For to venture outside is surely to die
So we all stay beneath our titanium sky

But perhaps one day, in a thousand years time
The land will have healed and thrive once more
Man will return to the world he destroyed
And take greater care of what's been restored
I hope we'll have learned from mistakes in our past
And I pray we'll have grown out of fighting and war
The sun will shine bright, and the stars light our skies
But when that day comes, I'll be here no more

No stars will shine for me tonight
No sun, no moon, just fluorescent light
No clouds and no rain, no birds ever fly
I'm living beneath a titanium sky

The sun will shine bright, and the stars light our skies
But when that day comes, I'll be here no more
I'll be here no more
