This Dystopian Life

Call off the Searchers
Where the Angels fly
Summon the Fire
To quit is to die
Spinning through the void of space
One life on this rock at a time
No one could ever comprehend
The infinite chaos design

Blind your eyes to paradise all around you
Scrape the skies with monuments to our demise
Draw the borderlines to divide every nation
Only the powerless wish to survive
The endless universe is brimming with meaning
Volcanic eruptions spawn forth waterfalls
We know the planet is living and breathing
And every thunderstorm is a church without walls
Semper Idem - Divide et Impera
The Game they play is always the same
Carpe Diem - Acta, Non Verba
Only we can truly become the change
If our planet is failing
Colonization is a suicide mission
There is hope left to save it
The window gets smaller with each passing day

Standing on the Shoulders of Giants
Gazing into the Abyss
Staring out beyond that eternal shoreline
Past the Horizon of Time
We are here, in this unfolding history
A tale of ancient machinations
Like clockwork, running flawlessly
Until the day of the great cessation

Carve your name into the solar system
Expand your brand to a new galaxy
While your children suffer and starve
On this tiny island in your Cosmic sea
Messianic figures in chains of gold
Designer suits encrusted with jewels
Promise prosperity in the hereafter
As they drain all the lifeblood from you
Gods are Complex, but you are neither
A silly little boy living in a lost dream
Runaway from the world that rejects you
In search of somewhere empyrean
You've built a kingdom of fantasy
An ivory tower to lock yourself in
Hide yourself away from responsibility
For the fate of your fellow man

Standing on the Shoulders of Giants
Gazing into the Abyss
Staring out beyond that eternal shoreline
Past the Horizon of Time
We are here, in this unfolding history
A tale of ancient machinations
Like clockwork, running flawlessly
Until the day of the great cessation
