Humanity"s Salvation

Through infinite contradictions we deny our innocence
Basking in the afterglow of the destruction of another life
We make atonements by wrapping it all in a pretty bow
The consequences we inflicts on ourselves are just
Another form of self-worship

    So we swallow another bitter wholesome lie
    And drift off to sleep dreaming of another death
    But thoughts of malice surround our efforts to be alive
    With a simple page turn we find new ways to kill

Life now is just an excuse to ensure the downfall of reason
Petty ideas of conformity leads to bliss and surrender of hope
With a knife to our throats we embrace the lie and smile
 Crossing our broken fingers to ensure our own defeat so
Maybe then our pity we have an outlet

    Self-induced  love awakens our resolve to lose
    With an inkling of our unknown suicide our
    Truths give us commands to hold off the beginning
    So the end will allow us to build a better asylum

Death the great sleep. The one thing we all strive for
Through our awkward attempts at normalcy we escape life
And embrace the afterthought of endless sequences of time
We are tired. We are broken. We are alone. We are not human.
As extraterrestrials we inhabit the spaces in between growth and decay

    This world is the beginning of the existence of doubt and guilt
    We have allowed our own species to devolve into perfection
    Lies hold the tattered remnants of facts. Only our dreams hold the belief
    That through trial and error redemption can truly be restored

    Salvation by the blade is our only trusted friend
    With our own bloodshed we can achieve god hood
    For immortality holds the key to our demise
    The only  true action we deserve
