lyrics

There's a thought that has come to haunt
The demon that keeps one awake:

"What if all higher intelligence possessed
an innate drive for self-destruction?

What would be the value of life,
when the world spirit itself speaks?

Individual's price,
when humanity takes its next great leap?"

"For ain't it evident
that the dynamics of progress
are best portrayed in the images
of nooses and guillotines?
And thus would the horizon
of mushroom clouds mark
the final atonement and rationale
behind history"

"What's the value of life,
when the world spirit itself speaks?

Individual's price,
when humanity takes its next great leap?"

When melancholy overwhelms
Into the stars I gaze
I find it poetic
How those thousands of fallen civilizations
gaze back at me

There's a thought that has come to haunt
What if our collective will
was one of extinction?
So, we're to face the paradox:
Weltgeist driven by Thanatos
The Anima mundi revealing itself
in all its...

...malevolence
Through technology
Malevolent is true technology

When melancholy overwhelms
Into the stars I gaze
I find it poetic
How those thousands of fallen civilizations
gaze back at me

So, we're to face the paradox:
Weltgeist driven by Thanatos
Extinction as an expression
of our collective will
- How a laconism
with no moral lesson
turns into a scream of terror!
