All reason left behind
We're still for answers gasping
In our vanity, presumed to rule forever
No ancient enemy, we rain our own destruction
Upon our legacy, the countless worlds we have betrayed
Betrayed
No pause, we're still behind
We see our glory fading
Into obscurity, all riches spent, we're nothing more
No light, no remedy
The axe will fall so let it fall
No time for revelations
At last, our end is drawing near
We serve our heads upon the ashen altar of justice
We seek nothing more than to be free
Free of delusions of grandeur, to see
Struggle to breathe
Postpone our doom we're fated
To die in agony
All hope expelled by our own hands
We chose hypocrisy and wished for divine guidance
No god, no deity
We see the blade to our own necks
It breaks
We break
We serve our heads upon the ashen altar of justice
We seek nothing more than to be free
Free of delusions of grandeur, to see
Ourselves guilty of the madness
Our lives' work's become to instill
Our dying wish seen fulfilled
Beneath waves of self-wrought damnation descend
