Borders breaking down, consumed by their greed
Civilization crumbling beneath overpowering need
In agony lies no consciousness to speak
Deranged corruption, the sickly and the weak.
The machine that destroys and devours
Innocence can be bought through unspeakable power
Lies and hypocrisy born from hunger and hatred
And we try to survive what we have created
The edges blur and new lines are drawn
As in distance disappear what was crossed before
Souls are sold to the highest bidder
Sit and watch your humanity wither
Pull back the veil; face your new god
Stare deep into the eyes of the lord
In suites and ties and empty eyes
The new monster we created lies
