Cthulhu Biomechanical - Der Großen Alten Lied Songtexte

Die Großen Alten:
Menschen...
Ihr glaubt, daß ihr Meister eueres Planeten seid
Ihr glaubt, daß ihr Meister des Weltraums seid
Ihr glaubt, daß ihr fast alles wißt
Und ihr glaubt, daß ihr auf alles durch eueren Verstand
hinarbeitetet
...Irren ist menschlich

Die Großen Alten:
In kalten und überalterten Abgründen ruhen wir
Auf keine Menschenweise kann man
gelangen bis zu uns
In diesen bodenlosen Brunnen sind unbeweglich wir
Doch gibt es keine Schranken für unsere einzige Macht

Die Wellen unserer Gedanken pflanzen sich fort endlos
Sie bringen unsere Befehle in Lautlosigkeit
Wie Pfeile dringen sie in Köpfe und siedeln sich
für immer an
Menschen sind jetzt völlig folgsam wie alle Sklaven
müssen sein

Hört uns aufmerksam
Tut was wir sagen

Die Sterne warten auf uns
Sie führen uns durch Schmerz und Tod
Wir werden glücklich zwischen den
Wir werden frei und mächtig dort

Wir werden frei
Wir werden frei

Die Sterne warten auf uns

Und der Tag brach an,
Als der Mensch den Weltraum zu erschließen began
Langsam aber richtig
Vorsichtig aber hartnäckig
Das war der Anfang unserer Freilassung
Freiheit

Moscow Radio:
As result of intensive work by Research Institute and Designing Bureau a first artificial earth satellite in the world has now been created... This full satellite was today successfully launched in the USSR... (October 4, 1959)

The first Soviet Sputnik:
Call-signs...

The Great Old Ones:
People...
You're sure you're masters of your planet
You're sure you're masters of Space
You're sure you know nearly everything
And you're sure you've achieved everything
with the help of your mind
...To err is human

Yuri Gagarin's space rocket:
The launch...

The Great Old Ones:
In cold and ancient Abysses we lie
Through no human way we can be reached

In these fathomless wells we're immovable
But there are no obstacles for our only power

The waves of our thoughts spread endlessly
They carry our commands in silence
Like arrows they penetrate into heads
and settle there forever
Now people are completely obedient as slaves must be
Listen to us attentively
Do what we tell you

Stars wait for us
They will lead us through pain and death
We'll become happy amongst them
We'll become free and powerful there

We'll become free
We'll become free

Stars wait for us

And the day came
When the man began opening up the space
Slowly but right
Guardedly but stubbornly
It was the beginning of our deliverance
Freedom

Yuri Gagarin (in Russian):
Zarya, I'm Kedr, I can hear you very well. I feel fine. The flight is continuing well...

I can see the earth. The visibility is good... There can be seen everything. There's a certain amount of space under cumulus cloud cover. I continue the flight, everything is good.

Everything... everything is working very well. Everything is working very well. Let's keep going!

Zarya-1, Zarya-1, I can't hear you very well. I feel fine. I'm in good spirits. I'm continuing the flight. Everything is proceeding well. Equipment is working well.

The Great Old Ones:
Stars wait for us
They will lead us through pain and death
We'll become happy amongst them
We'll become free and powerful there

Yuri Gagarin (in Russian):
The first thing that struck me - and before that I flew planes at high altitudes - was that you can see everything in detail on the earth from space, at such a great height... And, of course, striking was the sky, black with stars, with a very bright sun...

My greatest plans, my greatest dream is to visit the space once again, to fly there, to see more, to fly to other planets... other planets... other planets... other planets... other planets...
