The omega strain
Awake the darkness

What are humans? Another parasite
A mere collection of feeble cells
Evolved just for decomposition

But I have seen beyond the stars
From Wormwood to Sirius B
For I have touched too many scars
A past so fucked I can scarce believe

I refuse the destiny
That is laid out in my veins
Force fed agony
Create my own travesty
This...
Omega strain

Can you reach as high those gods above
That deny the rights to paradise
And offer scorn to unforgiven?

But I have seen beyond the moon
From Ophelia to Galatea
For I have born so many tombs
On worlds so fucked I can scarce believe

I refuse the destiny
That is laid out in my veins
Force fed agony
Create my own travesty
This...
Omega strain

I have sought meaning
Beneath glassy waves
Found utter torment
In arms of lovers
And cast my last stone
From storm ravaged peaks

There�s devils in guises of holy gods
How did I find myself among them?
I am but a wolf among the sheep

But I have walked into the mud
Vesuvius to Pompeii streets
I have seen demons in my blood
In tales too fucked I can scarce believe

I refuse the destiny
That is laid out in my veins
Force fed agony

But I have seen beyond the stars
From Wormwood to Sirius B
For I have touched too many scars
A past so fucked I can scarce believe

I refuse the destiny
That is laid out in my veins
Force fed agony
Create my own travesty
This...
Omega strain
