In the early hours of New Years Day 2013, a radio astronomer at the Allen Telescope Array in northern California discovered a mysterious signal emanating from a star within the Ophiuchus Constellation.
Contained within the signal was a Message--of human origin--foretelling the details of man's imminent demise. The Message was brought to The Starset Society, who quickly realized the importance of its immediate publication.
Risking extreme danger, The Starset Society commissioned a group of musicians and scientists to assist them in spreading the knowledge to a broader audience. This group became known simply as STARSET.
Please hold. STARSET will begin the TRANSMISSION of the Message to the public shortly.

Starset Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But they forgot the black hole in the sky
Yesterday is nothing
I have half a life to rewrite
Flying into this future
I will let the science bring the change
This will be the final cure
I am gonna take the past away
With the full force
Of a dying star
I will find you
If you're near or far
Wherever you are
Floating through forever
I am stealing the energy
Endlessly endeavor
This is finding infinity
I'm falling through a dark sunrise
I will escape the entropy
And find a way to leave this time
I will bring you back to me
With the full force
Of a dying star
I will find you
If you're near or far
Wherever you are
The above lyrics are from Starset's song, The Future is Now. The song is about a person's determination to change the course of their life, to take control of their destiny, and bring a change in their world. The opening verses of the song highlight the challenges faced by the person with the phrase "they said there was no way but they forgot the black hole in the sky." This phrase conveys the idea that while others cannot see the way forward, the person is willing to venture into the unknown and redefine their world. The phrase "Yesterday is nothing, I have half a life to rewrite" suggests that the person has realized their past will not dictate their future.
The chorus of the song "With the full force of a dying star, I will find you, If you're near or far, wherever you are" emphasizes the person's determination to find a new path in life with the force and power of a dying star. The repetition of the line "Wherever you are" highlights the person's resolve to find positivity in their life, regardless of their current situation. The following line "floating through forever," suggests the person's sense of liberation and freedom from their past life.
Overall, The Future is Now is a song for those who feel trapped and stuck in their current situation. It is about hope and the power to bring about change in one's life. The lyrics are motivational, uplifting and empowering.
