The construction of the ideal world is complete Arrogance cloaked in progress The epoch of complacency begins Drink deep the poison of enlightenment The collective will has been realized Hopeful, we orbit the rotting sun Yet on the cusp of immortality Humanity falls to every sickness Numbed and blind to the covert genocide We are the bloodless shells of man The creations best their masters With machine-like precision, they feed We are the bloodless shells of man The creations best their masters A return to the state of nature Reduced to a feral monstrosity The apex has been reached at last We climbed Jacob's Ladder and wide-eyed, tasted the infinite We now fall from the peak of the edifice And feast upon its foundation Eyes shut away from true salvation The heaven we seek is a lie
