Aliens

What if they came in peace and we just... didn't care? We've been rehearsing this scene for centuries.

They land on our ground ships in the air Watchin' in silence caught in a stare Guards on the line fences stand tall Tell me who's the threat after all? Dark skies break alarms go live Unknown vessels they just arrived What do they want? Why they here? Questions drowned in waves of fear Stories told of worlds enslaved Visions of cities burned in the haze Men in power grip their seats We strike first or we face defeat Metallic hands blank expressions No time for talks just first impressions Movements slow no weapons drawn But one false move and the war is on They land on our ground ships in the air Watchin' in silence caught in a stare Guards on the line fences stand tall Tell me who's the threat after all? Borderlines close troops take stance Gunfire sparks the first advance No second thought no second try Just faceless threats against the sky They move like us breathe our air Yet all we see is a vacant stare Names unknown no words exchanged Only the fear that nothing's the same Warnings flash the sirens blare Tensions rise but do they care? Boardrooms filled deals get signed Leaders talk but they tow the line Fear sells fast the market thrives Profits rise while the truth just dies New dawn same fight different age Turn the page but the script won't change Strangers land we draw the blade Always a threat always afraid Detonations sound buildings collapse Families erased in coordinated attacks We never talk just fire and sweep Easier to silence than let strangers speak Chained to the past scripts never change Same old orders just switch out the names ET ain't callin' they keepin' their shields Why land on a world that just shoots when it feels? Drones patrol steel bars close Camps get built fear still grows Cameras spin twist the view Make 'em the monsters hide the truth They called us the risk said we couldn't be saved But history built on the bodies we paved What if they came not to conquer but plead? And what if the real invaders were we? Flipped the view took a step back See the footprints crushed in the cracks Every war plan same act same cast Did we ever stop and just ask? What if they ain't the threat but the proof That war ain't survival it's an endless excuse? If every first meeting ends with a fight Then maybe just maybe we ain't so right Watch the skies watch our sins History loops where it begins We load the guns build the walls But what if we were the threat all along? They reach out their hands waiting in peace Hoping for more than just war's release We feared the unknown built up the divide But maybe the monsters were always inside
