The Sixth Extinction by Ayreon
The Sixth Extinction lyrics
1. Echoes On The Wind
Tom Englund:
It's the calm before the storm
It's the quiet before the war
It's the time when all will be decided.
Steve Lee: All will be decided
Tom Englund: If nobody hears the echoes on the wind
Tom Englund: It's the end of the chain
Steve Lee: Destruction of the fittest
Tom Englund: It's the end of our reign
Steve Lee:] We've seen it all before
Tom Englund: It's the end of man's evolution
Steve Lee: The end of evolution
Tom Englund: For nobody heeds the echoes on the wind
2. Radioactive Grave
*
Hansi Kursch Do you hear the sirens?
Daniel Gildenlow: Do you see them burst?
Steve Lee: Do you feel the fire?
Jonas Renske and Floor Jansen: All the world's a radioactive grave!
Tom Englund: I can hear them crying
Bob Catley: can see the fear
Jorn Lande: I can see them dying
Jonas Renske and Floor Jansen: Washed away by deadly gamma waves!
Hansi Kursch: Do you hear them calling?
Daniel Gildenlow: Do you see them hurt?
Steve Lee: Do you feel them falling?
Jonas Renske and Floor Jansen: All the world's a blazing funeral pyre!
Tom Englund: I can hear the wailing!
Bob Catley: I can see the wrath!
Jorn Lande: I can see them failing
Jonas Renske and Floor Jansen:] Washed away by a scorching sea of fire!

3. 2085
Jonas Renske: Silence's so loud, not a soul... left alive
Darkness's a shroud
2085
All our dreams have disappeared
They burned down... tree of life
Confirming all that we feared
2085
Bob Catley:
Don't give up, remember how we felt
Fire rushing through our veins
Now it's the time to rise up from our hell
Now it's the time to free our brains
Steve Lee:
The meaning of life is to give life meaning
Go too fast, move too slow.
Restore the balance between thinking and feeling
Open up and let it flow
Jonas Renske:
No side has won, struggle to... survive
Our quest here is done
2085
All our hopes have disappeared
Our race will... not thrive
Time will not recall the year
2085
Daniel Gildenlow:
Don't give in, remember all we learned
The spark of life if did ignite
We regained the rage for which we yearned
We regained our will to fight
Jorn Lande:
We must resolve this human equation
We're already dead if we don't try
To welcome challenge, genetic variation
Stop the machines, prepare to die!
4. To The Planet Of Red
Instrumental
5. Spirit Of The Wind
Tom Englund He's the last man alive
Steve Lee: Searching for the answer
Tom Englund: Knowing he won't survive
Steve Lee: To the mystery of live
Tom Englund: Relives the past, and dreams of the future
Steve Lee: Dreaming of the future
Tom Englund: And soon he'll set free
Steve Lee: And the sleeper will awake
Tom Englund: The spirit of the wind
6. Complete The Circl
Make us whole, migrator soul
Follow you home, complete the Circle
We must survive, restore our lives
The way I'll show, complete the circle x2
Hansi Kursch:
Send back visions
Into the past
Of war and decay
Floor Jansen:
Hear the final cries!
I can see the fear
In a world without walls
Anneke van Giersbergen: Through their eyes
Tom Englund:
I see them dying
We have to teach them
Migrator soul
Daniel Gildenlow:
We will gain our will to fight
We're at the dawn
We found a way
Steve Lee:
I know we'll make it in the end
Listen to the one man
Bob Catley:
We gave them language
What did they say?
What did they learn?
Jorn Lande:
We have no choice
We are the future
We are the pain
Complete the Circle!
Steve Lee: AH!!!!
