Lyrics
Selfish Gene
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I feel my body is programmed to die
The worms waiting for my funeral
The time destroy my life
Life is so short and decadent
Death is inevitable, but the man wants to be immortal
Everything in the cosmos is slave of time, from birth to death
The promise of eternal life is used to encourage people to die
Fighting for tyrants fighting for fanaticism
The promise of eternal life is a trap of his selfish gene
To rise above all/ to domain the planet earth
Dehumanize the human species
Disconnect our cord from natural world
Dehumanize the human species
To implement pharaonic plans
Dehumanize the human species
Disconnect our cord from natural world
Dehumanize the human species
For the interest of domination
Ecce homo, just apes worshiping totems
Try to explain your inner vacuum
Why transcend our mind
Our demons and dreams into a cold machine?
Build other world to fell like a God, of this cold world
Dehumanize, dehumanize, dehumanize, dehumanize
Just as apes in front a totems
Why do you think you’re special?
Just a line in middle a hundreds
Could our future be a machine?
Why do you want to live for eternity?
Why do you don’t see your carbon based anatomy?
Why do you want to live for eternity?
Why do you don’t see your animal condition?
