"Faster Than Light" lyrics

Once more we're flying fast as light
Dark matter passing in the night
Pursued by a force we can't outrun
As we hurtle towards a dying sun

We maneuver through the remnants of a moon
On the solar winds of supernovas
There is not a place to hide, the Matriarch is close behind
It's plain to see she's coming for us all

Fly till the stars collide
Till we live or die
Faster than ever before
Fly to forget your past
To move on at last
Fly on and forever more
Faster than light

Still farther and beyond we race
Into the outer reach of space
Through systems I will never know
And yet still we have nowhere to go

As the planets shatter right before my eyes
There's no turning back, she's already here
Stare into infinity, and know that time is short for me
I can't deny she's coming for us all

Fly till the stars collide
Till we live or die
Faster than ever before
Fly to forget your past
To move on at last
Fly on and forever more
Faster than light

Why do I not turn and fight?
And see if I somehow might, set myself free
Why do I feel so alive?
As if suddenly I somehow find, I'm where I should be?

Finally, I feel I can face up to all that I've done
And become something more

Fly till the stars collide
Till I live or die
Faster than ever before
Fly to forgive my past
To move on at last
Fly on and forever more

Fly till the stars collide
Till I live or die
Faster than ever before
Fly to forgive my past
To move on at last
Fly on and forever more
Faster than light
