Refractions -

The hourglass knows the depths of despair

The collective sorrow of a hopeless world

Show me your deceitful gods

Will they open their eyes to our pain and suffering

Or find amusement in our blood and our agony

Our anguish was foretold in their divine plan

Not by Gods' will

But by man’s hand

Humankind wretchedness

Self-inflicted misery

Voluntary suicide

Self-persuaded apathy

Narcissistic hypocrites

Controlling the majority

Dying race

Sleep awake

Dream away your misery

So let the trees wither

And let the oceans dry

Repent, Atone

It’s far from over

Destroy, Rebuild

We must recover

We’re given one last chance

To rewrite

Our bitter end

There is no escape

From this hell we’re all living in

There is no escaping this hell

Will you watch as we burn?
