The perfume of burning flowers
Gravestones in the sky
The decay of lost dreams
A crucifix of flies
Destroyer of worlds
Harbinger of the unknown
Prey to the neon gods
Let all mind and body go
Dismiss all earthly passions
To the fire in the sky
Let war replace the hymns
Of mother's lullabies
There's nowhere to run
And there's nowhere to hide
Surrender your identity
And don't question why
I wander through the ruins
Of our crumbling world
And I want to believe
That there is something more
Future is but fantasy
In our decaying world
A holocaust to cleanse the earth
Of every boy and girl
A cancerous womb for every child
A crib of cement walls
Plastic dreams of treeless nights
Repose for one and all
Ignore all of the shadows
Consuming all we know
Surrender love for hatred
And cast every stone
March to the beat
Of the broken machine
Relinquish your soul
To the bright glowing screen
The only shred of hope
Lies in a dying dream
That there is something more
For you and for me
Where we can all be free
From this broken machine
A dying dream of liberty
