"Dying Creed" lyrics

"Dying Creed"

Fallen are the people of a decaying race
Now proclaiming the legacy inherited too late, too late

Mankind, the dying creed
Reared on ignorance and greed
On suffering we feed
Devouring all beyond our needs

A path of self destruction they cannot see
Regarding their only interest in profitability
They cannot see

Open our mind before it is too late
Unlock the chains of confinement that we create

Grasping all that you can, overloaded capacity
Nothing can conceal instinctive rapacity

A movement to disaster
Could this be the final plan?
Blinded by our avarice
The closing chapter, extinction of man

Mankind, the dying creed
Reared on ignorance and greed
On suffering we feed
Devouring all beyond our needs
