The Stupendium - And Then I Prey lyrics

Begin transmission my name is Morgan
I think I just went from prisoner to warden
You come to Talos 1 you might
End up with more than
You bargained for every darkened
Hall's completely crawling
With abomination with a taste
For human organs
Secure accommodation for aliens has fallen
Everyone’s been slayed I guess
It's up to Morgan
To show them to the room the
Station keeps the morgue in
Hold that thought in imagine if you can
A gleaming future, science
Progress and it's gifts to man
Dodged a bullet
It’s the world Kennedy lived to plan
Or maybe just a dream
You need to kick the tryptophan
Fast forward, 2032, here I am


Trapped in orbit on this awful
Corporate foray into prison camps
It's a roller coaster but you
Know it ain't Disneyland
Space station ventilation's bad
Enough before shit hit's the fans
Now I'm the mystery man
My mind's blank I think
I've slipped into delirium
What role did I play in
Creating this? I don't understand
Voices and visions are they real
Or am I going mad (Crazed Laugh)
When the typhon picked a fight
You know they didn’t bank
On ending up in petri
Dishes in chemistry labs
But now they’re on the loose and I'm
The lab rat left to stand
No one delivers lessons so
Ignored like history can


Is there anyone out there but me?
Is that more than a shadow I see?
Am I the cure or disease?
I drop down to my knees and then I pray
That when I wake from this dream
It won’t just play on repeat
This hunt's unclear on the teams
Need to know, am I predator or am I prey?

So you're stuck in space to
Face a crazy creature feature?
Well I'm the guy you need to know
It’s nice to meet ya (Hi)
So listen up because there's a lot
That I can teach ya
But don't pull up a seat 'cause there's
A chance the seat will eat ya
You know that there's no end
To what I'll power through
Drop a neuromod and you're a god
For an hour or two
What? Do I look like some sort of mug to you?
Wait a minute blink and miss the mimic
Now I do so lend an ear 'cause engineering
Can be true fun
You won't believe the things I
Do with the glue gun
I'm splitting typhons like a hyphen
Dash right through them
Got monsters dropping like they're on
An egg and spoon run
I'll ECLIPSE the OPPOSITION
It's quite gluesome one small step to me
I'll make you NEIL and BUZZ-t you open
My APOLLO-gies, afraid I have got to run
I ain't got time to sit
Around making moon puns
I'll beat this sigie of awful
Creatures like a damned art
One man battering ram, man the ramparts
My deepest sympathies if you
Worked for Transtar
Chances are your parts are going
Home in jam jar


Is there anyone out there but me?
Is that more than a shadow I see?
Am I the cure or disease?
I drop down to my knees and then I pray
That when I wake from this dream
It won’t just play on repeat
This hunt's unclear on the teams
Need to know, am I predator or am I prey?

Is there anyone out there but me?
Is that more than a shadow I see?
Am I the cure or disease?
I drop down to my knees and then I pray
That when I wake from this dream
It won't just play on repeat
This hunt's unclear on the teams
Need to know, am I predator or am I prey?

I am unrivaled, art of survival
The rapture has packed up and left me to die
Well i get my vigor by jacking my vitals
So I take my plasmids straight
Into the eye ball
Modular shopping spree, nobody's stopping me
'Cause I monopoly biotechnology
Modding my body just short of lobotomy
Honestly feel I could topple a monarchy
Ominous god in an army of one
Losing the plot is just part of the fun
Losing my sanity, who needs humanity?
When you can snap turn into a gun
Any event, I'm in the vents
My list of methods for death is immense
Sneak through the shade or go
In guns a blazing
Stay out of my way if I'm on the defense


You ever fought a war?
Had to slaughter hoards?
My no man's land's a maze
Of grand atriums and corridors
Don't believe me? go and mop the floors
'Cause they're a smorgasbord
Of all the monsters Morgan's fought
You could call it sport i'd win awards
But it's survival and the prize
Is only more to thwart
Another winding of this mortal
Coil I'm called towards
Another droplet on this lost
In orbit water board
It's them or me so I'll fell
Every fiend I'm brought before
Topple this acropolis of morden
Vision's rotten core
I'll drop the populous of horrors
Here to all but naught
Guess I'm the final so if
I'm coming lock your doors
If that could work of course
You can't avert the force
I'll hack and slash through with
Hands axe or a keyboard
A couple of taps and access granted
So be warned skill deck full of chipsets
What you wanna call IT for?
Space man assassin tasked
With supernatural slaughtering
A sordid offspring of aldrin and kaldwin
I've got ATTAND ways of
Slaying alien stowaways
My DNA accommodates my prey's
Genetic paw prints so mess with Morgan Yu
Might get a talking to that's put politely
'cause more likely you'll be torn in two
So if you're spawn unfortunately
Walking through my point of view
I'm sad to say, up here in space
I've left no one to mourn for you

Is there anyone out there but me?
Is that more than a shadow I see?
Am I the cure or disease?
I drop down to my knees and then I pray
That when I wake from this dream
It won’t just play on repeat
This hunt's unclear on the teams
Need to know, am I predator or am I prey?

Is there anything left here of me?
I don't quite fit in these genes
I can't tell you singing from screams
I drop down to my knees and then I pray
That when I wake from this dream
More man than killing machine
One thing that remains to be seen
Need to know, am I predator or am I prey?
