As I open my eyes
Oh, give me the heart
To face the grim truth I can't deny
The greenlands are now bare
The spring of life has dried
The Mother holding her dying child
What has been left behind
Of towers rising high

And while we thought we had 
The brightest of all minds
What have we done
The will to hold the reins
Born from the wish for life
A fever, devouring all we had
Unfit to win the fight
We were our own demise 

But in this madness what have you gained
Demolished your home for a jail
Was this the unavoidable fate
For power in the hands of apes
Oh, in this madness what have you gained
The illusionary throne you built
Fallen, scattered ruins and tears
Is this mankind
Is this the logic beast

Was this the price for the apple you seized
Was this the wisdom you claimed to seek
Was this the control you claimed to keep
Was this your dream
Silent's the song of humanity
Nothing more's beyond

What have you gained
Nothing more beyond

Fallen, scattered ruins, tears
Perish, foolish beast 

Where is the awareness, the wonder for it all
Where is the beauty, the poetry
Where is the wisdom you claimed to seek
What of all this
What did you find past the boundary
Was this all enough
Will you ever learn

Where is the balance between you and the world
The one that made you be born and live
How could you lose the survival key
Throw it away
Illusions fade and your towers sink

Where is the awareness, that made you win and grow
Where is the wisdom you claimed to seek
Where is the control you claimed to keep
Burnt by your own flames 

But in the aftermath
Of our darkest night
There is no light of a new sun
Beyond the horizon line
We may build a new path
Or just evolve to dust
