lyrics

The gift of sentience offered to the primal apes
Guinea pigs of a misguided choice on the seven days.
God shaped men to his image, but it was distorted,
The words were embezzled to serve the needs of their unworthy bearers .
The power of self-decision shattered the shackles of decency.
Evolution after evolution, we refined our degeneration,
Sacrificing all forms of spirituality for self-indulgence,
Transcending mere decadence towards an art form.

Our time was wasted, our dignity faded away...
The meaning of these lives shaped for love forgotten forever more...

God is dead,
His future condemned by the mistakes from our past,
All hope in his progeny vanished
Each time mankind reached a new low.
The aimless swirling vortex of violence will know no end,
Until the final atrocities bring us to extinction.
The experiment is over, we are a failure.
Our sacred writings were befouled, the given sanctuary defiled.
All remembrances of goodness has forsaken our world,
Being replaced by insanity, greed and corruption.
Our dismayed demiurg abandoned his kindred with scorn,
And in the absence of his divine essence we are lost...
