Set Phasers to Kill Lyrics


The Devil's time's not wasted

Its god who wants you dead

mankind needs a sacrifice

don’t offer up your head

In times of old

written in gold

were songs of sin

and sorcery

Magic in the night

valor and the right

The inward eye burning

The warmth of summer

disappears when the air

turns to ice

The sun’s light doesn’t reach you

Your soul fades out of sigh

Gold replaced with memory

Magic fades to obscurity

Steel made obsolete

Fallen by technology

Our fate is sealed when

Time competes with us

The future brings the end

and leaves no one to trust

So set your phasers to kill

In the hunt, we find the thrill

Fight for your life, or no one will

So set your phasers to kill

Water running the edge of the steel

vile taste and acrid feel

You will suffer in dismay

Till they kill you a quicker way

Pander to the people

skewered upon the steeple

Worship lions without teeth

Pray to it your soul to keep

See the stranger

broken by time

Screaming as he’s eaten alive

Soul ripped in a frenzied fog

the last bit of meat is thrown to the dogs

Set your phasers to kill

In the hunt, we find the thrill

Fight for your life, or no one will

So set your phasers to kill

No hope of natural selection

a body rotten with perfection

Take the false correction

begin the last insurrection

(Solo: K. Losinske)

(Solo: S. Delorey)

The future world is ours to break

It’s all decided on the chances we take

Don’t let your only living need

be to suffer to to bleed, no no

Hostile forces cut to the bone

Discover fire, fly past the gods

and die alone

Cyclonic disruption is

eschewing function

Such weakness disgusts us

confuses, corrupts our hope

of natural selection

a body rotten with perfection

Take the false correction

begin the last insurrection
