Beyond The ZeroPlace built on trampled bodiesDiseased and paralysed Buried where they fell dead Like crippled insects Raised from blackened soil Steel monstrosity Rising skyward From the gutter to the gods Open wound on the land Infection Virus spreading From the gutter to the gods Birth of a nation Baptised in blood Island universe Cage of surreal being This flawed masterpiece Of their own making Raised from blackened soil Steel monstrosity Rising skyward From the gutter to the gods Open wound on the land Infection Virus spreading From the gutter to the gods Birth of a nation Baptised in blood Descent into the centre Slaves but none can see Vestige of humanity Words that lured the ignorant Unwise to live with illusions Power lord or fugitive There are no motives without deceit A powerful instrument of control Vultures Circle overhead Fear and threats In spiralling shadows The brave fall Unholy ground Rebellion never formed Empty space A partial radiance Ill conceived notion Looking beyond the scope of reason Looking beyond the scope of reason A glimpse of twisted light Pure will and bone The last to repent They have always been the enemy The enemy How to end this plague Fear of the steps That leave no trace Rising skyward From the gutter to the gods Open wound on the land Infection Virus spreading From the gutter to the gods Birth of a nation Baptised in blood Remorse and regret |
