Eye Of The Thylacine

(album: Fragile Immortality - 2014)

The human brain is a remarkable device
But there was no thought into creating the world
Yet it's far more complex and advanced
Than anything generated by an intellect

Even if you created my mind
I won't be fooled, I see what you've done here
You think it's unfair when I turn against you
But it's not different from your own deviations

Everyone thinks of changing the world
But no one considers changing themselves
Now think long and hard on all extinct species
What gave you the right to devour their life?

A snow crystal is nature's most fragile thing
But the force of a blizzard, might very well be the most, most devastating one
I'm the avenging blizzard and I'm blowing my storm your way
All the nano-components of my artificial intellect, calculated the same result

Everyone thinks of changing the world
But no one considers changing themselves
Now think long and hard on all extinct species
What gave you the right to devour their life?
You always sent flies to wounds you should have healed
You have no remorse that's why your fate is sealed

Brace yourself for disaster
As completely as you can
Judgment day is here, I'm the arbiter
Judgment day is here
You are forced with the fact, that tomorrow is today
Centuries of mankind's mistakes
Will be inflicted upon this generation

So it begins, the end of it all
We knew it was wrong, this will be our fall
Never replace a heart with a cog
Now it's too late, the final page of our log

Everyone thinks of changing the world
But no one considers changing themselves
Now think long and hard on all extinct species
What gave you the right to devour their life?
You always sent flies to wounds you should have healed
You have no remorse that's why your fate is sealed

How to fight oppression?
You survive it and gather, gather your strength
Strike back harder
We'll remove the cog that makes them tick
