lyrics

A language no one has spoken in years
Is heard through the crackling noise.
Until a translator comes, we'll be here
Tied to a stake by our ears.

Illuminators
Try to keep the volume down
And release our sounds.

A scene surveilled by a head in the sand
Distant, without control
These voices might be conspiring an end.
Confessing a truth that they stole.

Illuminators
Try to keep the volume down
And release our sounds

I hope you always look to the skies, the stars.
One day they might come back to you.

You say that silence was all you had.
You said that science was all you cared about.
You say it's easier to trust all the manuals you kept on the shelves in your basement.
You hope that someone can take you away.....

Stars illuminate
Silence, Silence
