lyrics
In these dark days
We're so tame yet insane
So stuck in our ways
So permanent our mistakes
We're perfectly enslaved
So conformably shaped
Entirely depraved
Finding stability in other's misery
And with a shameless pride, we embrace the lie
We're so stupid, obedient to the common lines
On the road of conformity to the temple of vileness
And with a shameless pride, we embrace the lie
And with a dishonest wile, we embrace the lie
The lie of righteousness, death and destruction are written in our genes
The lie of goodness, the lie that everything's all right
Oppression, corruption, wars of religion
All bred by the church, state and army
But with a shameless pride, we embrace the lie
Oh injustice, famine and poverty
But with a shameless pride, we embrace the lie
Homelessness, global warming, violence, pollution,fear and greed
All bred by humanity
So in the end
No knowledge gained from ourselves
No wisdom extracted from existence
Time has come to confess our complete meaninglessness
Our time on earth amounts to nothing
We're so tame yet insane
So stuck in our ways
So permanent our mistakes
We're perfectly enslaved
So conformably shaped
Entirely depraved
Finding stability in other's misery
And with a shameless pride, we embrace the lie
We're so stupid, obedient to the common lines
On the road of conformity to the temple of vileness
And with a shameless pride, we embrace the lie
And with a dishonest wile, we embrace the lie
The lie of righteousness, death and destruction are written in our genes
The lie of goodness, the lie that everything's all right
Oppression, corruption, wars of religion
All bred by the church, state and army
But with a shameless pride, we embrace the lie
Oh injustice, famine and poverty
But with a shameless pride, we embrace the lie
Homelessness, global warming, violence, pollution,fear and greed
All bred by humanity
So in the end
No knowledge gained from ourselves
No wisdom extracted from existence
Time has come to confess our complete meaninglessness
Our time on earth amounts to nothing
