The Architect

Behold the dusk The bleeding sky before the end A second life A mechanical life eternal Turn the tide Close the wounds of life's disease Immortal Creation Walk forever Man and machine made as one Abomination is the way Cross the dying plains March us into paradise Humanity replaced Let the gears turn Cull the weak Sacrifice for preservation Construct your vision Fuel your craving desire King of the world The final conquest is now complete Rise and behold Let your weight crush the smouldering ashes Barren wastes Nothing more than endless death Dead domination Presenting reality Behold the dawn A broken world beyond repair Life terminated So you can now exist King of the world The final conquest is now complete Rise and behold Let your weight crush the smouldering ashes Sacrifice for preservation Mechanical life eternal Sacrifice for preservation March us into paradise Feed consuming greed Linger beneath the dark skies Construct your vision Fuel your craving desire King of the world The final conquest is now complete Rise and behold Let your weight crush the smouldering ashes

The sky is dying It's bleeding out over the world The wind is sighing It's dying breath forever heard Creatures of the earth slowly rotting away The stench of putrid flesh It's so absurd We may never repair What has been done Soon life will be so rare Under our blackened sun Greed drove us here Technology raped the earth Now there's nothing left For us to destroy Don't say it's not your fault Because we know the truth now So eager to exploit The face of death is humanity The earth gave and we took 200 years of defiling Have left us to our fate And still the sky is dying We may never repair What has been done Soon life will be rare Under our blackened sun Greed drove us here Technology raped the earth And now there's nothing left For us to destroy
