The light of day upon the Earth
Death and decay to mark our birth
We make the pain, sadness, and disdain
We make our lives a maddening cry
In a madman's world - we play the parts
Puppets of flesh - with electronic hearts
Strings are severed - now all is severed
Sown shut eyes - no longer seeing
Words that tie - no longer binding
Life "inside" makes the soul drain
Life "outside" is a lash of pain
Look to the gods for light
But they bless only with fear
Like a "thief" in the night
They brought the misery here
This diseased theology
Is an infection in us all
We call ourselves "erect"
But we can only crawl...
Walk with me through the valley
Of broken dreams
And hopes are crushed by
Madness and pain
You inflict as you turn
The key to unlock
A world of shit and greed
Cut the strings again
All is severed
