Silent Fall of Man

We search our lives with diligence for things that we may never find.
A love that's true. Peace from within.
Equality and loyal friends!
 
Blindly accepting lies we're fed,
Not knowing the delusion.  
Unable to defend ourselves
Truth masked by illusions.

We medicate, and we sedate
to silence future men.  
We kill our children, never knowing
Who they might have been.
 
We follow to our tragic fate, obedient we die.  
And swiftly silence any voice
That raise the question "Why?"

Not realizing we're enslaved,
We'll get the labor done.
We fight a war that's not our own
We'll die until it's won.

What a wayward people
We have let ourselves become.  
Without compassion in our souls, Our hearts completely numb.

Greed and hatred fill our souls,
We're driven by our pride.  
Humility a stranger
And from the light we hide.

The harlot and the beast,
They are our ego and our greed.
Prostituting all we have,
For nothing that we need.

The time will come to face the evil hidden deep within.
With no excuse
We'll pay our dues
And suffer for our sins
