Siderian - Origins Lyrics

Beginning of the solar system
Collapsing mass collected in the centre
Condensing matter warms the fire
For the arrival of a new born star
Protoplanetary cloud of matter
Circulates and spreads across a parsec
Millions upon millions of collisions
Slowly grows the plantesimal clump

Evolutionary history charts the rise of life
Change across the generations leads us to the now

Accretion disc revolves around the new sun
Giant impact sends matter into orbit
Coalesce forming the lunar partner
Stabilise the axis of rotation
Liquid water provided the movement
Rise of earliest known life forms
Setting down of sedimentary layers
Split between bacteria and archaea
Photosynthesizing organisms
Cyanophyta oxidising iron
Hurricanes they stimulate the process
Forming of the ozone layer
Tectonics beginning of subduction
Renew the crust of Earth that we all live on
Arrival of the Cambrian explosion
Accelerated diversification

Evolutionary history charts the rise of life
Change across the generations leads us to the now

Origins; the point at which something begins
Origins; conception, creation

First land plants and global glaciation, microbial life on land
Tetrapods emerge and leave the water, divergence of the phyla bands.

Evolutionary history charts the rise of life
Change across the generations leads us to the now

It's taken so much
Just to get us here
We're soon to destruct
Our own panacea
