This Is It

Locked inside this decadence
That seems to have no end
Swallow the vanity you call your own

We should have seen it coming
Reached our pinnacle without knowing
A dying existence of primal man

The only thing we are
Is a forgotten memory of yesterday

We've pushed too far
Could you have known
Is this what we are
Cause this is it

Say anything at all
Redefined by our scars
Bones turned brittle by years

Should I live so long
To watch our religion crumble
We never knew we were fading fast

The only thing we are
Is a forgotten memory of yesterday

We've pushed too far
Could you have known
Is this what we are
Cause this is it

All that we are
Left static in print
Never foreseen

We've pushed too far
Could you have known
Is this what we are
Cause this is it

This is it
