In a purple vision
Many thousand years ago
I saw the silent stranger
Walk the earth alone

Twenty-seven faces
With their eyes turned to the sky
I´ve got a camera
And an airtight alibi

I know they´re out there
We see them coming
Faster than the speed of light
They greet us in the dead of the night

Somewhere, someday, someone
They´ll be light and sound
They´ll alight on the ground
On which we stand

Somewhere, someday, someone
Will help us to survive
They´re gonna show us hell
And bring us back alive

Well, I´m no poet, but I can´t be fooled
The lies don´t count, the whispers do
I hear the whispers on the wind
They say the earth has fallen due

We run in circles
Our days are numbered
Every night I look away
To the heavens and I pray

Come to us
Come to us

Our lights are dim
Our roads are crumbling
And we don´t know what to do
We´re sick and tired
And dying to meet you
´Cause we bit off more than
We can chew
