lyrics

We found the first spark that would later tear down all the stars
the wheels of our great machine have never stopped turning so far
we danced around the fire then and we dance around the fire now
the price of progress is always escalating, escalating, escalating, escalating...

Don't you need a distraction?
something to block out the noise?
I can't believe that we are this
everything is all our fault
you can't be the solution
if you are the problem
the worst thing is the ignorance
Homosapien

We no longer hold on to memories
We upload them for dead eyes to scroll past
Notification every anniversary
Whether you want it or not


There are those rare souls that hold onto hope
but deep down they all know, deep down they all know...

A species drowning in unoriginal thought
whole conversations quoting online opinions
Fake outrage, false fear spewed down the throats of the gullible

The more we find connection the more we disconnect
drones drowning in misinformation
becoming more and more deprived

Staring into the fire, the fire spreads to the mind
There's only ever been one goal since
It's all the fire wants, a goal that never ends
Since that first spark there's only been one command-
Consume.

We are part machine! Look at us now! Look at us now!
