Lyrics

Atomically into existence
A creator of life was born
This universal migrator
In his celestial form
Astronomical segmentation
A division from which I came
To go forth with a task bestowed me
And seek out new worlds for all
Fly up into the skies
A sea of blue has crossed thine eyes
A quest to save mankind is made
Just one earthly being his soul shall remain
My power of thought calls you sleeper
Sleeper awake, oh you sleeper
Open your mind, hear me, sleeper
Sleeper, awake, come alive
Our spirit, they can never die
A cataclysmic end for many
Annihilated Earth to the core
But one soul survives in stasis
A colonist's spirit, the source
You're the one, not I, the chosen
With visions, a bright new dawn
To cross the starlit systems
A place where new planets are born
Rise up, you must awake
The here and now shall separate
The body frees the soul and mind
Your spirit will join me in time
My power of thought calls you sleeper
Sleeper awake, oh you sleeper
Open your mind, hear me, sleeper
Sleeper, awake, come alive
(Our spirits, they can never die)
Sleeper, sleeper awake, oh you sleeper
Dormant inside, hear me sleeper
Sleeper, awake, come alive
(Your body is dead, not your mind)
Rise up, you must awake
Here and now, just seperate
The body frees the soul and mind
The spirits align
My power of thought calls you sleeper
Sleeper awake, oh you sleeper
Open your mind, hear me, sleeper
Sleeper, awake, come alive
(Our spirits, they can never die)
Sleeper
Sleeper awake, oh you sleeper
Dormant inside, hear me sleeper
Sleeper, awake, come alive
(Your body is dead, not your mind)
Sleeper, awake, come alive
Come alive
Sleeper, awake, there's a world waiting for you to find
