A weary world decays beneath
A veil of cold synthetic light
Into the cameras' eyes we fade
As nature gives way to the wheel
In shackles, we're born
With meaningless toil
Ignorance and consumption
We feed the machine
Whisper the warning to the world
As it turns into a cage
Killing each other
Raping the mother
Cowering in shadow
Surrounded by concrete and steel
The ants form a line
They carry away all the color around us
To feed the machine
I see the future of this world
Smoldering in the haze
Killing each other
Raping the mother
Cowering in shadow
Surrounded by concrete and steel
In cages, we're born
Meaningless toil
Ignorance and consumption
We feed the machine
Leeching the beauty from this world
As it turns into a cage
Killing each other
Raping the mother
Cowering in shadow
