Our egos are endless
No judgement ever handed down
We won't confess to our blindness of bigger pictures
Man reigns in the dark and takes all for granted
What can you see past the edge of our wealth?
We never chose an heir
We forget the ricochet is the second part
We tumble into oblivion for lessons we did never learn
After taking what we did not
Earn a step towards the end
No more speculation
No more betting on the death of the poor as they weep
No more caging of progress
No more arrogance, no more
The face we dread, it glows in the dark
In our war room of concrete and glass
So much to reach for, but we look at the wrong skies
We'll rot in our holy grounds
Or burn in the tops of our spires
And the ones who stand and defy
Will watch everything bleed to its last drop
We tumble into oblivion for lessons we did never learn
After taking what we did not earn
Earn a step towards the end
Vain gods never learn
This all ends up in oblivion
It's what you get if you're unwilling to learn
Enjoy your glory in death
