[Architects - From the Wilderness lyrics]
There is no endgame
So whisper the truth and pass on the blame
Just put us out of our misery
This defeat is a victory
We're burning out, we're fading away
A failed evolution
Is the problem the solution that
They've been searching for?
We're waiting for the world to save it'self
'Cause nothing is built to last
We're writing our epitaph
So reset and start again
'Cause we all know how this ends
Before long we'll be dead and gone
A thorn in the side of the earth
Where do you draw the line?
A flaw in the design the rest is history
This defeat is a victory
We're burning out, we're fading away
We live in an infinite growth
Paradigm nothing grows forever
It's not possible as a great
Psychologist James Hillman wrote
"The only thing that grows in
The human body after
A certain age is cancer", and I think that
That's clearly what we're seeing at
The end of human
Industrial civilization with the population
Approaching seven billion
We're all guilty as sin
I feel it, I feel it under my skin
Always up in arms without lifting a finger
Lifting a finger
We may be infinite, but this world is not
Something that we once knew
That we long forgot that we long forgot
We're waiting for the world to save it'self
'Cause nothing is built to last
We're writing our epitaph
So reset and start again
'Cause we all know how this ends
Before long we'll be dead and gone
We're all guilty as sin
I feel it, I feel it under my skin
Always up in arms without lifting a finger
Lifting a finger
We may be infinite, but this world is not
Something that we once knew
That we long forgot
So whisper the truth and pass on the blame
Just put us out of our misery
This defeat is a victory
We're burning out, we're fading away
A failed evolution
Is the problem the solution that
They've been searching for?
We're waiting for the world to save it'self
'Cause nothing is built to last
We're writing our epitaph
So reset and start again
'Cause we all know how this ends
Before long we'll be dead and gone
A thorn in the side of the earth
Where do you draw the line?
