Lyric

The chrome hall stretches into white

Artificial stars provide no heat

I watch the silent gears ignite

Where distant worlds and signals meet

A curtain parts in liquid glass

Reality begins to glow

Beyond the limits that we know

The visitors begin to show

Behold the stranger

They have no need to hide

Extravagant and cold

Behold the stranger

They cross the open sky

With nothing to disguise

The opera house is vast and still

A silver light moves through the air

Why would they ever hide from us?

They simply show us they are there

Behold the stranger

They have no need to hide

Extravagant and cold

Behold the stranger

They cross the open sky

With nothing to disguise

They crossed the space

We've barely seen

They've reached the worlds

Beyond our dreams

What we call

The future now

To them

Is history

Behold the stranger

They have no need to hide

Extravagant and cold

Behold the stranger

They cross the open sky

For everyone to see

They crossed the stars

We barely left our home

And now

We understand

The unknown is beautiful

They do not hide

They never had to
