Humans were defective machines
        cursed with emotions and consciousness

They survived in sicknesses' shadow
        painful articulations and
        fear of the fatality of death,
        what comes next? they forever wondered

Slaves of an invisible power that was called money
        they liked to claim their freedom.
        yet their planet was a limitless cage

Autodestructive creatures,
        they begged for comfort and relief
        their quest was to please their siblings

Because humans were sensitive and insecure
        especially amongst each other

So they created alternative realities through
        beliefs such as esoterism, religion and astrology

Through many illusions, they were killing themselves
        with toxic food, substances, beverages and lifestyle
        they even had a name for that: suicide

And most of them were devoting their existence
        longing for vain concepts such as happiness and love

It was torturous to be a human
Who they naturally were led to their own extinction
