Lyrics The Test - Eidolon

The Test

Checking the engines — all things are in place
Strapped down the countdown’s begun
Lift-off in flames — smoke is filling the sky
Arrival to countdown is done
May god be with us — now splitting the sky
Launching our way into space
Many — failed to pass the test
Can’t attain — illusive
Expanding horizons — a leap for mankind
Mission is set and in place
Drifting through masses of binary stars
Solar flares beaming with light
Radar detection — incredulous site
The black hole — approaching in space
Many — failed to pass the test
Can’t attain — illusive
Mission control has detected — encourage
To alter the plan — it’s too late
Sucking our spacecraft in forbidden blackness
Components malfunction — now frayed
Losing all contact with mission control
1000 light years from home
Many failed to pass the test
The black hole — illusive
