"Xenotaph" lyrics

"Xenotaph"

Find this harvest is an offspring corrupt
Our foul descendants
Such promise shown in their collective mind
Directed to adverse anomalies

Xenotaph, we brought to you the quintessential light
The gift divine of being
Unbound you are lost

Find your cybernetic empire crushed
Lost in its progress
Vanquished by its own technology
Our virus ate the system from within

Xenotaph, we brought to you the quintessential light
The gift divine of being
Unbound you are lost
Xenotaph, you manifested artificial life
And so we intervened here
Unbound you are moths drawn to the flame
Begging fire to burn away your shame

Appear as gods to men, the transcendental kind
A fable catalyst breaching space and time

Xenotaph, we brought to you the quintessential light
The gift divine of being
Unbound you are lost
Xenotaph, you manifested artificial life
And so we intervened here
Unbound you are moths drawn to the flame
Begging fire to burn away your shame

Lambent figures in transition glow
Beings worshipped and adored
Reclaim the throne possessed for aeons
Restrain the vast progressions of our spawn earthborn

Lambent figures in transition glow
Beings worshipped and adored
Reclaim the throne possessed for aeons
Restrain the vast progressions of our spawn earthborn
