At the Edge of Night

Humanity is trembling as the centuries go by
Our senses are augmented, our feelings left do die
The gods have vanished long ago and not a grave remained
Nature's drawn her last breath, we're proud of what we gained

Lost in deadly rapture and a blinding decadence
Guns to do the talking, no more words with which to fence
Technology can never stop the starving of the poor
New diseases leaving only money as a cure

I see dark ages alight
Sun won't rise again for human kind
Hark into the night
Greed is the gear that will grind
Mind and soul

Holding down the masses, best safety lies in fear
Hunting down the rebels, shedding blood but not a tear
Streets drenched in neon lies through treason and deceit
Led me to a darkened heart and its corrupted beat

Standing at the edge of night I will bring the dawn
The unseen hand to rule from shades, strings to lead you on
A path to freedom and to past, where all control is gone
Wings of wax to rise again beneath a brighter sun

I see dark ages alight
Sun won't rise again for human kind
Hark into the night
Greed is the gear that will grind
Mind and soul

I see dark ages alight
Sun won't rise again for human kind
Hark into the night
Greed is the gear that will grind
Mind and soul
