The burden of revelation Draws a sea of empty stares Descending while failing to make amends The face of hope barren through the carbon lens Oh, how they've fallen Too blind to comprehend A serene non-reaction As the pale light crowns their heads An inanimate resonance Unwilling participation Their bodies pulse the doom psalm A choir of ruination Oscillate (before the edge) I see through it all Worthless creatures, condemned, I swear The trial of time leaves none unclear As their fate draws nearer, panic sets in Constricting into the mouth of it All senses barren through the carbon lens Silent is the herd Only voices could escape What's the value of a single life Once all is stripped away?
