Abysmal as Europa's seas
As deep as space, with utmost ease
Beyond the stars, beneath the ice
Where sentience and sageness lies
Awaits the beast our offering
The god of hushed abandoning

Abysmal as Europa's seas
Where daylight dies and fires freeze
Where everything alive will wail
And all our supplications fail
Dawns he, who takes our final breath
We've sent the note, we've woken death

Abysmal are Europa's seas
They're bottom-, bound- and merciless
It is too late to beg or please
We had the wrong decisiveness

Beneath the ice lies utmost doom
We woke the wrath, we signed the note
The earth is our woeful tomb
We've gone too far; we couldn't float
