Star of Sirrah Lyrics

This fateful day, we are gathered here inside this hall
To find a way to escape our pending fate
We lack the power to immobilize the 'Frame
We need to save our race and leave this world behind
But can we leave the rest... to die

You have all been chosen for your skills and expertise
I beg you to have faith in me and I vow to set you free
I see only one solution, we have to leave this dying world
But I need us to collaborate and together we will find a way


I found our destination near the Star of Sirrah
A sphere drowned in water in the Alpha Pegasi

I'll set the navigation for the Star of Sirrah
Fire up the Starblade, are you ready for the quest to our new world

In the holy book of scripture, the Revelation of the Seals
It was prophesized this day would come, Armageddon was revealed
A Gathering of Sages, the Aligning of the Ten
They'll deliver us from evil and guide us to our sanctuary amid the stars

You realize, if we're to live on an ocean world
To survive, we need to change and adapt
Liquid Eternity allows us to evolve
It's the Source of our rebirth, the essence of life!

The pieces fit, we've got all we need
Now the puzzle is complete
I hope the 'Frame will allow us to escape
We must bid Alpha goodbye and leave our friends to die!

We found our destination, near the Star of Sirrah
A sphere drowned in water in the Alpha Pegasi
We'll set the navigation for the Star of Sirrah
Fire up the Starblade, we are ready for the quest to our new world!

Ayreon is a progressive metal project started by Dutch composer and musician Arjen Anthony Lucassen in 1995. Based in Hilversum, Netherlands, Ayreon's musical style derives mostly from heavy metal and progressive rock, but combines them with genres like folk, classical and electronica. The majority of Ayreon's albums are dubbed a "rock opera" with an ongoing science fiction storyline featuring a host of characters, usually with each one being represented by a unique vocalist.

Ayreon's music is characterized by the use of traditional instruments in rock music (guitars, bass guitar, drums, analogue synthesizers, electric organs) mixed with instruments more native to folk and classical music (e.g. mandolins, violins, violas, celli, flutes, sitars and didgeridoo). Lucassen writes the music and the lyrics, sings and plays instruments on all of the Ayreon albums, alongside many guest musicians. His most regular collaborator is drummer Ed Warby.
