Neglected posterity of a selfish collective
Clinging to the skeleton of the infrastructure
Parasitic existence carved out in the wastes
Tribal scavengers forage for sustenance
In the wayward vestiges of humanity
Foraging for the artifacts of a lost world
Innovations replaced with ash
Lessons of higher intelligence lost in time
Ill equipped and naive
Groping blindly in the dark for a foothold
To thrive from the ancestral remnants
Scattered throughout the earth
Our evolution has rewound itself
This post-modern Bronze Age has awakened
From within the cemetery of advancement
The stagnant dregs of our former presence
From within the cemetery
The stagnant dregs of our former presence
Now feed the offspring of our own
Clinging to life by the smallest thread
Supported only by the forgotten spoils
Of a wholly expired generation
Foolish enough to spit in the faces of the gods
We have re-entered the food chain
No longer a threat to the wilderness
Naked and timid prey
Defenseless to the night
Missions to survive
End with teeth and stone
Unable to coexist with the planet that bore us
Rejected from the body of Mother Earth
A tainted transfusion
Erroneous and malignant
Neglected posterity of a selfish collective
Clinging to the skeleton of the infrastructure
Parasitic existence carved out in the wastes
Tribal scavengers forage for sustenance
In the wayward vestiges of humanity
Foraging for the artifacts of a lost world
Innovations replaced with ash
Lessons of higher intelligence lost in time
