Unknown Forces are surrounding us all over.
We don't know where they're from, we must find out what they.
Want from us if anything. If it's us or not.
We must go on a journey into the mystery.
Where will we go, we don't know.
That's what scares us.
Are they ghosts or are they angels. Could be demons.
Could be aliens could be abominations.
Whatever it is, we must be prepared for it.
We must get what we need, to survive this unknown.
Entity whatever it is, we must know it.
Get ready it's almost time to go out to it.
Into the mystery. Where it's waiting for us.
It sees us, but we can not see it without aid.
A portal has appeared before our very eyes.
Should we step into it. We risk surely dying.
We'll take the first steps in, just wish us all the luck.
See you on the other side. We hope to God we do.
Here go nothing. We just took the first steps in.
Whoa.
If you see what we saw, you won't comprehend it.
Creatures floating in air, we don't think they see us.
They're just floating about. Not a care in the world.
We'll try to walk past them, they seem harmless enough.
Oh shit one of them has bit us on the arm Ow.
Don't know if we'll get infected by some strange ill.
This won't hinder us now, we will keep on going.
These creatures seem to get bigger further we go.
Some look like strange fish with spikes and sharper teeth now.
The bigger ones seem to look like mutant cattle.
They seem not fazed by our presence, we'll walk past them.
What is that we see there at the distance from us.
It looks like some ancient temple made of rock and flesh.
There looks like something sitting on top of it.
Looks humanoid if not for the bunch of tentacles.
We don't feel so good. Maybe it was from the bite.
But we didn't feel it until we saw that thing.
How can looking at some creature make us sick.
No.
We must get out of here fast, we know what that thing is.
It's one of the old ones. We must hurry out now.
Don't even look at it, it will drive you mad.
Find some other way to solve this mystery now.
The portal is not too far, we may still make it.
Those creatures are chasing us. They won't let us leave.
We must fight them off with every thing that we got.
The old one just got up, he is walking to us.
The closer he gets, the more we start to feel sick.
We are not even looking at it but we feel it.
Won't be long now, we just got to the portal.
We made it through, but there is one new problem now.
One of it's tentacles is trying to get through.
We must close the portal now before it gets through.
Reality is already warping from it.
There must be something we can use to close it up.
Portals are usually caused by some strange frequency.
If we sing it right, we may just close it.
Ohm.
That was very close the portal is closed up now.
We barely made it, but that thing's lost a limb too.
We must take it to CIEIR Headquarters and study.
See what makes it tick and why it exists here now.
But first me must tend to our wounds, just in case.
We may have some kind of eldritch disease in us now.
We leave it in the lab we have underground here.
S.T. Musician is tending to our bite marks.
So far nothing has happened to make us sick now.
We go to the lab and we study it up close.
Despite being severed it is still moving now.
We restrain it and we take a sample from it.
Using our tech we find it's like nothing we seen.
It looks like it's regrowing itself in fast pace.
We burn it up quick so it won't make an old one.
This mystery is solved for the time being now.
If you find a portal do not go into it.
We barely made it with our lives and sanity.
Don't.

Light Harmony: Off Days

Heroes Can Have off days too, yes.
Mostly to get over trauma.
Of the things we had done to us.
As well as what we did to them.
Don't forget innocents too.
As they could use off days as well.
How we handle it depends right on.
What we think we should do right now.
We could go and see the great sights.
Or hang out at bars on Hash Night.
Or we could just stay at home now.
Singing, playing, have fun, the works.
Possibilities are endless.
So long as it helps get over.
All we had to go through our lives.
Each one more scarring than the last.
However despite what we had.
We don't let it consume our lives.
As we strive to keep moving up.
We won't let anything down us.
Plus it let's us get to know you.
Which better helps us help you out.
Listening to your grief up close.
While we think of ways to ease it.
Whether it's trouble at your home.
Or a matter that's personal.
Whatever the case it may be.
We will try our best to help you.
However you must be patient.
As Rome was not built in a day.
Things like this takes time and planning.
Which we use our off days to do.
Sometimes it feels boring when we.
Spend most time doing nothing.
Maybe we could find adventure.
Doing things we don't often do.
Such as expanding our reaches.
Maybe look into the unknown.
Who knows, we may just make new songs.
Whatever it is, we'll make time.
The beauty of us on off days is.
We spend it finding something new.
What do you do on your off days?
Is it fun, exciting for you.
Please let us know, when you have time.
We would not want to bother you.
Until then, we must get ready.
Our off days will soon come to end.
But they were fun while they lasted.
S.T. needs our help, we must go.
Even with the remains destroyed.
We found something very shocking.
We may know what is beyond.
But we think we found the source of crime.
It is branched from sinister source.
We have found evil in pure form.
Whoa.

Break's Over

All Good Things Must Come To An End
These Days Off is just one of them.
This Break's Over now back to work.
Fighting crime and making music.
We enjoyed what we did so far.
Having fun and helping others.
But now is the time to suit up.
Plan out what we do in future.
For what it's worth. This break's worth it.
Rest and Relief from our work's stress.
We had entertaining good times.
We explored worlds beyond our own.
We went shopping and played arcades.
We tried our best to stay in shape.
Then we smoked weed got drunk and fought.
But made friends out of enemies.
But now it is time to prepare.
Find the hot spots of crime. Start there.
Look up what offences they did.
Then make sure they're punished fairly.
Eye for an eye is how we roll.
Thieves and Killers will get what's gave.
Innocents will get peace of mind.
All in all we hope to make peace.
However we are not heartless.
If you feel remorse for your crimes.
We'll do our best to reform you.
But your lives belong to us now.
Stay tuned for our next great album.
Is it lessons? Who knows keep watch.
But for now the time is to go.
Be good or else we will find you.
Bye.
