"The New Eternity" lyrics

"The New Eternity"

Mother tell me, why do the waters make us sick?
Who bleeds the heavens making the clouds rain pestilence?
Dropping fever, like manna from the morning sky
Gather your children and hold them as they die
Panic humming in the palm of my hand
Silent vectors injected with the curse of man
Bodies dissected, heartbeats redirected
The past was dead, why did we resurrect it?

Strange fruit grows on the vine of humankind
Beneath a bright synthetic sky I saw the future die

A web of wires in our mind
Weaves an empire down our spine
I fear we've sealed our fate
There's no escape - there's no escape: The New Eternity
Strange fruit grows on the vine of humankind
Beneath a bright synthetic sky
I fear we've sealed our fate
There's no escape - there's no escape: The New Eternity

Germinating extinction

The people unite when you dose them with fear
Relinquish their will - let their objections disappear
Crowds galvanized by vapid words and septic slurs
Utterly transfixed by the fiction of the greater good
Estranged in this age we set sail to the stars
Return to the earth still unaware of who we are
We've come too far
We've come too far
We've come too far
It's all I know
The darkness didn't die, no, we brought it home

I sowed a secret deep in the earth
But despite the world it grew
I knew all things could be made new
All things will be made new

A web of wires in our mind
Weaves an empire down our spine
I fear we've sealed our fate
There's no escape - there's no escape: The New Eternity
Strange fruit grows on the vine of humankind
Beneath a bright synthetic sky
I fear we've sealed our fate
There's no escape - there's no escape: The New Eternity

Cross the Great Divide and see Light and Dark collide in me
Shake the shroud of secrecy, uproot the grim hegemony
The New Eternity
