Cenotaph

Falling
Through the wreckage
Of your dreams
Crawling
Out from underneath
Your debris

You always feed
Fears that plant seeds
Slowly growing
Into your disease
Passed down to me

Genetics bind
Our flesh in time

Forgotten
Said I knew the way
I knew the way
Forgotten
Said I knew the way
I knew the way

Drowning slowly
Join the buried

Put your hand in mine
Leave behind this life
Time, so trivial in this place
With no reason to wait
It's easier to fade away
So let's fade away

Forgotten
Said I knew the way
I knew the way
Forgotten
Said I knew the way
I knew the way

Your journey completed
A tribute to the dead
Erected in the wake
Of the singularity

Ladies and gentlemen!
We stand before you
A tribute
To the dead

Forgotten
Said I knew the way
I knew the way
Forgotten
Said I knew the way
I knew the way
I knew the way

I knew the way, yeah

Your journey completed
A tribute to the dead
Erected in the wake
Of the singularity

Forgotten
I never knew the way
I never knew the way
Forgotten
I never knew the way
I never knew the way
Forgotten
I never knew the way
I never knew the way

"What is the meaning of life?
What is our purpose on earth?
These are some of the great false questions of religion
We need not answer them
For they are badly posed
But we can live our answers all the same
At a minimum we can create the conditions
For human flourishing in this life
The only life of which any of us can be certain
That means we should not terrify our children
With thoughts of hell
Or poison them with hatred for infidels
We should not teach our sons
To consider women their future property
Or convince our daughters
That they are property even now
And we must decline to tell our children
That human history began with bloody magic
And will end with bloody magic
In a glorious war
Between THE RIGHTEOUS AND THE REST"
