E.T.I - Tarot

I see a burning streak

In the dark sky

The stars above are turning pale

A faceless messiah

Beast from the outer space

TV-legions all hail

The one we’ve all

Been waiting for

Is it here and now?

With faces proud

But the heart’s grown small

We stand in shaky reception

Overloaded minds

Trying to predefine

The moment of truth or deception

The one we’ve all

Been waiting for

Is it here and now?

Will we be given an answer?

Does it know who we are?

Will we see a brighter future

By the light of this star?

The gods of billions

Will share just one fate

Crushed down beneath

The new one’s weight

Will we be given an answer

If it knows who we are?

Will we see a brighter future

By the light of this star?

Telescopes and glassy faces

Forced to touch and to feel

Covering beneath the glory

And the threat made real

By the light of this star
