They are extra-dimensional beings
That, an earlier precursor of the, um, space program they made contact with
They, they, they are not what they claim to be
Sparta - Sans Cosm
Time: 1:20
These miles hold an infinite time
Long enough to remember and regret precursors
Time turning, foundations shakin' away
Rings of Saturn - Eviscerate

The latest extinct precursor of man.
We have wiped the globe clean of every civilization since the dawn of time.
