Vae Victis - Citalicue Lyrics

Crystallised in quiet stasis
Drifting softly, uncertain in our time
Taken for granted, all our lives are thrown away
Is this farewell forever, or is it just a dream?
Wash away the sands of suffering and stand before the light
Beyond the skies, complete serenity, beneath us only lies
Into the stars we will roam
Still searching for our home
A requiem of sanctuary calls
Infinite cosmic glory, a hope yet still remains
Into the stars, we will fly
Ancient eyes upon us always, never letting go
Will you pay for what you've done, will you ever gain control?
Pray that your sons and daughters don't make the same mistakes
A breed of infinite wisdom yet you're born to annihilate
Into the stars we will roam
Still searching for our home
A requiem of sanctuary calls
Infinite cosmic glory, a hope yet still remains
Into the stars, we will fly
Will you follow our footsteps, the hell we've left behind?
All begins to crumble down, we're running out of time
Look what we've done
Damage that cannot mend
Into the sun
Never to return again
Our wings have burned away,
To nothing but decay
Mother of light, please save us
Another chance to breathe among the cosmos
All around is ash and dust
Our home a land of ghosts
We turn our eyes towards the skies in search of shelter
And pray our heartless ways will be no more
Into the stars we will roam
Still searching for our home
A requiem of sanctuary calls
Infinite cosmic glory, a hope yet still remains
Now is our time to make amends
Into the stars we will roam (forever roam)
Still searching for our home (you'll find your home)
A requiem of sanctuary calls (calling out from high above)
Infinite cosmic glory, a hope yet still remains
Into the stars, we will fly into the fire
