Inexorable, merciless, relentless – the thing marches on

Known to all yet no one has ever seen nor touched it

Nosy, noisy, pervasive – of this great system we are fond

“Oh, mighty Civilization, for you everyone shall submit!”

 

The crowd gathers once again for worship

They don’t know why so conviction amplifies

That which took our freedom brands the whip

Blinded by rage, guided by fear, now only blood satisfies.

 

But for all your lies, you heartless ruler, I forgive you

For Men has forgotten we overcame Hell

By becoming One our survival rang true

And still, I can’t wait for the day to bid you farewell.
