Ayreon - The Day That the World Breaks Down lyrics

The Historian: A silence so deafening As the stillness surrounds us A rush of fear is surging through our veins A shadows so menacing Darkens our horizon What have we done Is this the end When d**h descends The Opposition Leader: Don't say I didn't warn you You'll recall my words The day that the world breaks down Don't claim you didn't see it Are you prepared to die The day that the world breaks down The Chemist: I can't believe we're in danger I can't believe that we've let it come this far The Counselor: We must prepare for the changes We must prepare for The day that the world breaks down The Opposition Leader: Don't expect we will survive this There will be no way back The day that the world breaks down Don't a**ume it's all a nightmare Won't stand a chance The day that the world breaks down The Chemist: I can't believe this is happening I can't believe we are headed For a fall The Counselor: We must prepare for the blackening We must prepare for The day that the world breaks down The Prophet: I can feel it in my heart I can see it in the stars Behold: It's all been foretold The future unfolds The day that the world breaks down The Captain: I always knew this would happen Not many believed in my cause I'm sure they will all turn to me now I'm sure I'm the only one Who can save us TH-1: (StarBlade) The Captain: From this fate The Captain: I always knew they would need me Not many showed faith in my plans I'm sure they will listen to me now I'm sure that I'm the only one Who can save us TH-1: (StarBlade) The Captain: From this fate The Astronomer: Yes I believe you are the answer Yes I agree you are the key Your future lies in the heavens Our future lies beyond (the stars) TH-1: (The StarBlade) The Astronomer: We will save them TH-1: (StarBlade) The Astronomer: We will save them TH-1: (StarBlade) The Astronomer: From this fate TH-1: 01110100 01110010 01110101 01110011 01110100 01010100 01001000 00110001 The President: I must've been blind I mean it should've been obvious Straight out of my mind To rely on a cold machine The signs were strong I know I was wrong I know they will hate me now But I will come clean And destroy this cold machine The Diplomat: This is not over Not as long as we're alive If we join our forces We will make it This is not over As a race we must survive And in the end we will Cross this bridge... together The President: We're losing this fight And yes - we got ourselves to blame I guess it seems right In the mind of the cold machine I'll fix every flaw I'll break every law I'll tear up the rulebook If that's what it takes You will see I will crush this cold machine The Diplomat: This is not over I am sure we will find a way Out of this desperate situation This is not over Even if it all seems hopeless For in the end we'll cross this bridge Together The Biologist: I can feel it in the air The signs are everywhere Communications' ground to a halt Traffic has stopped The grid starts to fail Planes crashing down We're getting closer to The day the world breaks down
