Blueshift

lyrics

In our ways, we are set and change is so hard to believe
Artificial eyes scan the cosmos revealed in full spectrum relief

Vector orientation and increasing velocity
Prove that something is headed our way
On an intersect course, faster and faster and Doppler agrees

Science leads the way as we grow to understand who we are
Revelation is hard to accept: sentience among the stars
It is a numerically impossible to have the only planet alive
And given the vastness of space it was only a matter of time
There is a reason we have gained their attention

There is a direct correlation between Heaven and Hell
As the Eyes of the Nation turn to the sky
We verify that something is on its way
Something is coming our way

Trajectory set and verified
Something traversing the cosmic sea
Apprehensively we scrutinize
Stars changing directions impossibly

All of this was hypothesized
In prophecies hard to deny
Still having trouble believing our eyes
A blue shifted light in the sky

A new Heaven intruding, we are undermined
From our station of earthly supremacy
A divine iteration, who is to say?
But something is headed this way
