lyrics

Beneath the earth so deep breathes iniquities so pure
Under torrential waves dreams a malevolent scourge
While unknown space conceals a deistic omniscience
Two-hundred thousand years perpetuating man’s ignorance
In many a mind, of Homo sapiens-centered significance
Proposed by mastery and understanding of environment
Entertained with ideas of narrow science, limited philosophy,
And sophomoric hopes of benevolent monotheism
These thoughts providing cornerstones to egocentrism
Beliefs spawning pursuits of decadency and neglect
Diminishing efforts invested in discovery and evolution
Comfort now found in stagnation not imagination
A decision of an appealing submission
From the depths dwell beings of growing human disdain
The essence of humanity bears signs of decay
Few are those who desire a mental stimulation
Yet these passions don’t dissipate into the vastness
Choose your suffering…
Those chosen are shown dreamscape visions vividly
Freedom manifested in temporary delirium
Unfortunately, the mind’s brittle nature can’t endure
Such revelations without shattering one’s reality
From the depths dwell beings of growing human disdain
The essence of humanity bears signs of decay
Few are those who desire a mental stimulation
Yet these passions don’t dissipate into the vastness
Freewill, yes it binds us to our forsaken breed
Our selected sacrifice, acceptance of the creed
Words of alienation from a rotting society
Dissolving connections to indifference and deceit
Loyalties now lie with beings which predate humanity
