The Acid Lakes of Ganymede

Lyrics

Breathing shallowly
 Oxygen stores now depleting
 Cygnus-one took quite a beating
 Harm sustained from overheating
 Burned away what was remaining
 What now remains?
 Combusting with every breath what meager molecules are left
 A beacon beaming, pioneering carving through the atmosphere
 Small, but infinite incandescent light
 Dim, yet in full sight
 Piercing endless night
 ♪
 Oh, it's burning bright!
 Forging on and on tenaciously fixated
 On the slightest sign of a reprieve
 Looming is Ganymede
 What lies beneath?
 Crystal clear, but devoid of life
 Reservoirs of bile and blight
 A beacon gleaming in the deep
 Shimmering from beneath the Acid Lakes of Ganymede!
 ♪
 Blown wide
 Depressurized
 All air bleeding out into the void
 Meteorite
 Falling of stars
 Carbonized
 Prepared to die
 But holding tight to every atom left of life!
 Brace for impact
 Brace for impact
 Brace for impact in the acid lake!
 ♪
 As I fall, free of motion, in suspended animation
 Dreaming of what I'd find
 I am sure that it was not here
 Fear of the gleaming light
 I couldn't shake it
 I will always feel that I can't make it on my own
 ♪
 Eyes erupt to view the gleam
 Visions of what was foreseen
 Reaching out to grasp the dream
 Sublimate straight into steam
 What light gleams beneath the Acid Lakes of Ganymede?
 Dissipation of my extent, outer being
 Nuclear fission of atoms that would connect the seams
 Dissipation of my extent, outer being
 Nuclear fission of atoms that would connect the seams
 ♪
 As his body broke down into its most basic molecules
 It would spell disaster
 What was the origin of this mysterious light
 And what will become of our hero?
 Ripped apart, ripped apart at the seams
 Retinas burned by the nuclear gleam
 Ripped apart, ripped apart at the seams
 Retinas burned by the nuclear gleam
 I'll redefine the pain you hold inside
 I'll redefine
 Just have to sign the dotted line
 Ripped apart, ripped apart at the seams
 Retinas burned by the nuclear gleam
 I'll redefine the pain you hold inside
 I'll redefine
 Just have to sign the dotted line
 I'll find a way, a new design
 Chase the signal to continue
 Rebuild all the atoms left of you!
 ♪
 My form now discreet
 A sum less than the whole being
 My form is incomplete
 Mend the fracture that exists inside of me
 So please reformulate
 Don't let this mission be my final fate
 The end has never seemed so near, but wait
 Don't you see a glint of hope inside the gleam?
 So, please, reformulate
 Don't say it's too late! (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
 Oh, now it's coming back to me
 A new reality is waiting there for me
 Don't say it's too late
