Scar Symmetry - Scorched Quadrant

Now gaze at this ashen world
A declaration of defeat
Awaiting the final strike
Drones will spearhead the descent
Dive down to the barren ground
Search for survivors in the filth and grime

Drones search high and low
Above and below
Exterminators without remorse or guilt

From scanning satellites
We're guided out of sight
As furious shapes emerge
Discovered targets die
Our way the wicked's coming
Drones deployed to destroy

Now observing out of sight
Scanners pick up human scent
Errors as they calculate
Inconclusive
Inferno upon the earth
Besieged scorched quadrant set ablaze

The machines deployed
Craft sent to destroy
Determination ignited their circuits

From scanning satellites
We're guided out of sight
As furious shapes emerge
Discovered targets die
Our way the wicked's coming
Drones deployed to destroy

Carrion of disease, causing certain mutation
Suffer those who survived
Politics of the tech generation

Forced, I slowly will become
A born transgressor
To restore what still remains
An example to alternate the platforms of war

For I've seen a vision
The source undefined
I find myself immersed in conversation with the sky

Guided to the catacombs
By a coming race

From scanning satellites
We're guided out of sight
As furious shapes emerge
Discovered targets die
Our way the wicked's coming
Drones deployed to destroy

The quadrant burning bright
Scorned stands the sheltered site
Victorious grueling scourge
Those guided out of sight
Await the great undoing
And avoid their downfall

Carrion of disease, causing certain mutation
Suffer those who survived
Politics of the tech generation
