Like demon possessed, taking no rest Building the tower ahead Founded on science, unholy alliance The mental life suffers instead Pushing on faster, head into disaster The tower sways up to the spire Eternal erection with no satisfaction Symbol of misled desire Aiming heaven, approaching hell Blinded by greed and deceit Inflicted by karma, extending the drama The harvest of yesterday's seed Life's meaning descending with no comprehension Mysterious enigma unsolved In one-way direction, just forcing the action Mankind is one-sided evolved A morbid monument arising A monolith that shall prevail No synchronicity with nature's law Unstable, bound to fail
