In the name of gods
You prey on desperately
Like a parasite

Here lies the consequence

Six billion arms around me

In sweet denial

With burden to bear

Atlas recoiling
In terror


Six billion arms around me
Destined to wake


Light dims on civilization
Gathered 'round dying embers
And with a steady hand

Long last we're thrown into the sun

Spiraling cataclyst

Deafening, down to this
Ascending, world in tow
Telling all, eternal woe


Throw it all, make me strong
Never right, never wrong


One and all alive
Disposed
