[Verse 1] Level negative twenty-three Water Only water Above Below Every direction Water The ancient records said The weapon was lost here During the Old War The records neglected to mention How much here There actually was
[Pre-Chorus] Lorn looked around “Fold nine has something more interesting.” “We are not in fold nine.” “I know.” Lorn continued looking at fold nine
[Chorus] Power overload Somewhere in the deep below Power overload Lost before recorded time A weapon sleeping A weapon waiting A weapon nobody found Power overload Which one is it
[Verse 2] The search began Thousands of objects Ancient blades Broken engines Fragments of armor Lost machines Things nobody identified And several things Nobody wanted to identify Aevum examined one “This again.” “You remember seeing this?” asked Asala “No.” “Then what do you mean?” Aevum shrugged “This again.”
[Pre-Chorus 2] Vael stopped swimming Or whatever Vael was attempting “Must water be water?” “Yes.” “Interesting.” “It isn’t.” “Isn’t it?” Asala continued swimming Ignoring this professionally
[Chorus] Power overload Every relic glows somehow Power overload Everything feels dangerous A billion answers A billion weapons A billion things to lift Power overload Which one is it
[Verse 3] The first jellyfish arrived Nobody noticed The second jellyfish arrived Mira noticed Yesterday The third jellyfish touched Vael Vael disappeared Long silence
[Spoken] [Lorn:] Where did Vael go?
[Mira:] Level section seven.
[Asala:] How do you know?
[Mira:] I watched it happen tomorrow.
[Asala:] Of course.
Another jellyfish Touched Lorn Lorn vanished
[Aevum:] This again.
[Bridge] Thresh remained stationary Waiting.
[Asala:] Thresh.
[Thresh:] Coordinates.
[Asala:] For what.
[Thresh:] The thing you want found.
[Asala:] The weapon.
[Thresh:] Which weapon.
Long silence.
Across the level Hundreds of thousands glowed
[Pre-Chorus 3] Mira pointed left “Tomorrow says not that one.” Aevum pointed right “This again.” Vael reappeared briefly Then vanished again Because of another jellyfish Lorn returned upside down Nobody asked
[Final Chorus] Power overload Somewhere in this endless sea Power overload Waiting through eternity A weapon hidden A weapon sleeping A weapon buried in the dark Power overload We might be close now
[Outro] Then Asala stopped. Not because of a signal. Not because of a record. Not because of Mira. Not because of Thresh. Not because of Vael. Definitely not because of Vael.
A question. The question. The kind only Asala asks.
[Asala:] Why is this object Trying not to be found?
Long silence. The crew turned. Even Aevum. Even Mira. Even Thresh.
Far below Something moved. Once.
[Mira:] Tomorrow gets complicated here.
[Aevum:] …this again.
The object glowed. Ancient. Massive. Wrong.
[Asala:] I think we found it.
