The Collective

Searching the sands far and wide
When at last we are given the way
Passage deep inside
Hidden from all prying eyes
Here the sentients gather the strays
Readying the rise

Have I finally found where I belong
Surrounded by the family I seek
But why is there a feeling I can't ignore?
Omnious, we proceed

We are a light to shine in the dark
A fire newly born from the spark
A banner that waves in the fierce winds of change
We march with one beating heart

We stand before her, their leader
Adroid with the darkest of plans
Assembling the hive
Building an army to fight with a mind only Quora commands
Join or stand aside

Can I give up the person that I've become?
And squander the hope I've had for so long

I'm betrayed
My love forsaken
Is this how my dreams will die?
Thrown away, my parts mutated
I refuse to let it lie

How dare you stand against me
Your kind is ready to fight
You will not be remembered
I take what is rightfully mine

We are the collective (We are the collective)
We are the collective (I am the collective)
We are the collective (Come join the collective)
We are the collective (No one but the collective)

We are the collective (We are the collective)
We are the collective (I am the collective)
We are the collective (Come join the collective)
We are the collective (No one but the collective)

(We are, we are)
We are a light in the dark
A fire newly born from the spark
A banner that waves in the fierce winds of change
We march with one beating heart
