Extremophiles (B)

I am exposed to elements known
 To, in excess, destroy and dethrone
 Total envelopment of the system
 Resistant suspended as stone
 From mountain heights to oceans of ice
 (Searing heat to arctic freeze)
 (Replacement of hydration is)
 Essential to life and so I thrive
 Disordered proteins crystallize
 Converted cells now vitrified
 Superimposed on top of my own regenesis
 A genetic restructuring not ever seen before
 I stand alone
 A monument to obstruent adaptation
 Cryptobiotic response
 From mountain heights to oceans of ice
 (Searing heat to arctic freeze)
 (Replacement of hydration is)
 Essential to life and so I thrive
 Disordered proteins crystallize
 Converted cells now vitrified
 I survive
 Immortality realized
 (I) moving ever forward
 (Survive) to the precipice of time
 Holding the key to eternal life
 ♪
 Dueling shadows of mystery gone
 Congruent solutions, set the stage
 A glimpse of what's to come
 Will we decide, be rid of this blight
 (Fear of death, sorrow, disease)
 (Escape or face the weakening)
 Our fading timeline to face genocide
 A fronte praecipitium a tergo lupi
 Repair our structure or die
 I survive
 Immortality realized
 (I) moving ever forward
 (Survive) to the precipice of time
 Holding the keys to eternal life
 Encroaching our own hopelessness
 We drift away toward
 
 I stare and burn my eyes out
 Fate calls, do we answer or not?
 Chance to learn from life smaller, yet
 More resilient than ours
 I stare and burn my eyes out
