Life finds a way The fauna from the trauma Culled from the pages of this human drama Our petrified tombs Now crumbling oothecas From which a new species of human arises This radiated Earth Now incubating the brood Amidst the flora, a flourishing Gomorrah Novel inhabitants Doubled down variants Of the most insidious species that′s capable of sentience We molt from the past, an existence that couldn't last One rife with disease, war, abject cruelty formed From civilization′s rationalization That we are to be the conquerors of all еntities We're not going anywhеre We disseminate and descend, our corruption has no end We stoked the fire and it backfired Returned a parthenogenetic breed, gratuitous multiplier Thriving on poison is the secret Of a successful Parasite As you make one you make another And there hide others In plain sight Successful in our adaptation For violation Of all life An inexorable imperative Human's narrative Never dies We′re coming from everywhere A promethean infestation, anthropomorphic invasion That′s born from fire, roach-like survivor Returned to consume and populate terra firma occupier

Genuinely judging A creature completely critiquing A sucker sucking by Terroristic errant elitists eliting This is what we do And this is what humans are Insignificant imbeciles Adrift in a sea of stars Lo, we′re the same, you and me We are in fact the same, don't you see? Flesh, bone and neurons′ electricity Long gone viral this human disease Your faith divided by billions of galaxies Equaling nothing more than a ludicrous thought These constructs of man An insignificant plan A distorted reality Common animality You are not to be bеreaved An insignificant reflеction of me Slaughter us! Forget us! Exterminate us! Slaughter us! Forget us! Exterminate us! We live, we breathe to kill, to breed We molest, and we feed Slaughter us! Forget us! Exterminate us! We live, we breathe to kill, to breed We molest, and we feed We have always been the virus It has always been inside us The human is an animal We have always been the virus That you should never trust Slaughter us! The human is an animal It has always been inside us That you should never trust Forget us! The human is an animal We have always been the virus That you should never trust Slaughter us! The human is an animal It has always been inside us That you should never trust Exterminate us!

What a time to be alive when you realize life's what you despise It was never beautiful, it was never suitable For a soul to manifest as physical Engineered to be cynical An intense longing for euthanasia An exploration of misanthropia A worship of the disturbed mind The new baseline of humankind With all life's pleasures at our fingertips We're hoarding treasures on this sinking ship I'll lie in wait I'll die with hatred in my heart as we were doomed from the start Your selfish intentions Your children merely a collection In a grotesque act of abject subjection What a time it is to be alive To live a selfish life To want to die Since fairness can't exist in nature Death rides in as our only savior From this flesh A life depressed Living death spirituality Lust for life now just disintegrates Kill this warm corporeality When the gift of life is soured by the strife that begins with the dawn And extinguished by the night Execrate this energy The poison that flows through me This bastard sanguine I'm falling now A solemn vow To will my spirit out I'm falling now A solemn vow To will my spirit out I draped a veil over my heart They pierced a charge It refused to start I draped a veil over my heart Into the pale A brand new start We're in love with the end We're in love with the end

Sitting high on the throne, holding dominion Of the kingdom animalia Screams the pauper, the upright walker The mammalian life stalker Drawing lines in the sand, making absurdist demands Unable to understand life does not begin or end By the hands of homo-sapiens Something our mind cannot transcend From our humanoid disease To the genus species: human feces Horror reflected on your face My composition a work of art Dead are your dreams of prospering For your fruition now turns to rot To celebrate your soul's extortion As I gloat in your misfortune You brought this on yourself Every human has a stake, every bone will bend and break And this world will go on without you Every human's DNA, strands of hate forever stay And this world will go on without you Every human's bed is made, nightmares start when you awake And this world will go on without you Every human will forsake their own lives and their own fates And this world will go on without you We brought this all on ourselves We'd be going to hell If it existed outside this life The hell we already earned Where we perpetually burn The life you didn't know you yearned To the aether, you shall return This time for real, it is your turn Today, you're going to learn

This accretion where gas and dust consolidate Under gravity’s control began a wasteland alone No sign of life, intelligence has no role Compounds of four elements, the beginning molecules of a soul Geyser of light peers through the darkness No ocean, no atmosphere Hadean eon rise Abandon hope all ye who enter here Here where all faith goes to die Where we are damned by the light Complex sequence of elements Bond together life’s essence Sugars, enzymes, proteins, deoxyribonucleic acid From the kingdom to the order bricks and mortar of a doomed future A spirit born in the darkness A new species to arise Exothermic and heartless With a penchant for earthly demise Thriving in the light-less No need for hope, a future with no Illumination and sightless And grown without incandescence Skin starts to burn in the light Vampiric nightmare The cracking of the sun through the night Irradiated, alight the uphill battle of life Destroying dark Oppressive light, brilliance alive Avoid the spark that ends this night, damning sun rise Geyser of light peers through the darkness No ocean, no atmosphere Hadean eon rise Abandon hope all ye who enter here… Father Lucifer! Your light still casts a shadow In that emptiness we hide behind its veil Smashed across the rocks and bleeding in the shallows In our quest for light we’ve aimed our paths to fail Skin starts to burn in the light Vampiric nightmare The cracking of the sun through the night Goddamn the light.

Welcome to a new world This, the new mundane, our physical plane that rewards the constant smoothing of the human brain Balanced or insane, it's all the same thing When you calculate the cost of fucking living there's no forgiving those who brought you in this world kicking and hissing It was a mistake, forever forsaking the light, now addicted to life Birthed to a dead end This is the end of the line Creation condemned Dead on arrival design Progeny suspend Better aborted than alive Return the godsend Born forced into human acceptance Thrust into involuntary optimism while wading through our species' foulness The face of nihilism The final trumpets now beginning to sound A vacant crown, no humanity left now Falling into this new world, hitting the ground running Screaming into an open void, nameless and bloody Shat out another opportunist, voracious and cunning The roses rot at the roots, eight billionth coming... ...and they're coming ...Outgunning We just keep coming We're all heirs to nothing now Don't pretend that life is the same it was It shall never be again Life is a dead end now This shit is going south We're still alive somehow Without penitence Life is a dead end now Slow burn as soon as you're out We're still alive somehow Dead end residents Born dead to a world of indifference Head first into a state of self-congratulation while thinking we're the be-all end-all The face of narcissism Just look around The time to die is now The final trumpet sounds No humanity left now Just look around Society's sundown Anti-natality now No-one to wear the crown Just look around The time to die is now The final trumpet sounds No humanity left now

Feast your eyes on our only future Neglected, faded and falling apart Watching the world you know disintegrate Catch fire, situation already dire Consequences now fulfilled from two centuries past Worlds behind In the rearview reflects a clear view of tomorrow Veiled, draped in sorrow Jailed, unshaped and hollow Old world has vanished Expired To our minds we are banished Inside Forever This is our world now Trapped in the self with no way out What the fuck did we do? What the fuck did we think we could prove? Life is torture Life is torture Life is torture The slowest suffering We had our hopes We fashioned our ropes From which we now swing in the breeze They didn't work We went berserk Trying in vain just to be put at ease The winds of solastalgia Blowing the embers of past transgressions Burning our faces Leaving a charred world Devoid of hope The greatest depression And our dishonorable discharge Forever recorded In our DNA we left behind For we discarded That which reminds Nigh The end of hope The solastalgia Evil nostalgia of better times The end of hope Lament together Despair forever, lose our minds The end of hope The solastalgia Evil nostalgia of better times The end of hope Lament together Despair forever, lose our minds

Existence... the poetry of the flesh which we will trust from conception to dust Just another body - a temple of shit Filled with the trash that we dump in it This house possessed with sins of the flesh Instinctive desire to procreate multiplying our mess Another series of holes of which we're to fill Mortal receptacles pumped full of seminal swill A familiar stranger... To walk this earth is to always be in danger A complete and utter objectification of a sentient being An earthly trait of intellectual superiority Born in a hate manger Lined with extreme angst and a broken chemistry That familiar stranger Mourning our minds With an answer to the riddle you'll never find Fertile are the loins of the earth The soil womb to which we return Sharpened societal femurs Our swords to fall on What makes you think you're so sublime among the others that are standing in line? ... Waiting for their time We are only vessels that leave a stain that lasts forever The toppled cup of skin that spills a poison with no half measure We... we are only bodies Survived by guilt and the neurosis of entitlement Like insects... so are the days of our lives With a vastly finite duration With eons of habitual infestation But I... I'm just a body Alive but rotting A storm of flies that hides behind these eyes I'm just a body 8 billion like me Burning our hive Scorched alive And you... you're just a body Flesh-lined tragedy Dead but alive Remembering a time within our lives... in our history Life in our prime A fiction of the mind Lying to ourselves, blind We are just bodies Insect parodies Burning our hive Remembering the crime that is our lives... that's our history Life in our prime Reflection of a time where all is left behind
