lyrics

Masses marching, uniformly swaying;
dancing the dance of the mundane.
Marked pre-inception; predetermined,
internalized, but with choices clearly made.
Set apart by redesign. Schematics long sense drawn.
Blue-mind, blueprint, mandate inked in red...
finalized on the faded lines.

Unaware ineptitude. Breeding frivolous,
haughty dreams. All the while
strong disregard for laconic, silent screams.

Connection. Reality. This human condition
belongs to you and me.

What are we to do with it?
Continue along?
How can we just deal with it?
Extinction by fatal flaws.

To live out the time allotted us all. Cheat the hourglass: delusional fantasies
Mind-trap the real. Architects of utopian delight;
the only antidote: Implosion of our prominent prevarication.

Lifting vain heads towards the sky.
Erected homage crumbles down.
Reduce the errant reasoning.
Detoxed from man-made sovereignty.

What are we to do with it?
Continue along?
How can we just deal with it?
Extinction by fatal flaws.

To live out the time allotted us all. Cheat the hourglass: delusional fantasies
Mind-trap the real. Architects of utopian delight;
the only antidote: Implosion...

Artilectual dilemma.
Anti-euthanize the sub-species.
Retract all maligned passivity.
Engage our renewed salinity.
