Deus Ex Machinae

Come summon all your deities

they stand on trial

before a tribunal of humankind

We are but children to the earth

No matter what they say

we owe it all to her

she is beautiful

our fading world tonight

History bleeds for tomorrow

for us to realize

and never more follow blind

We offer conscious rebirth

there is no other way

we owe it all to her

she is beautiful

our fading world tonight

Somewhere close but far away

(the light) where we are all forever

All of those who long to stay

(the light) will tear apart and sever

It's time to carry the burden

to rise above all dreams

of aliens and gods

We are but children to the earth

No matter how you pray

we owe it all to her

so beautiful

our dying world tonight

Somewhere close but far away,

the light, obscured in disarray

A withered rose

that sprung and fades tonight,

watching as they sway...

you know it's now or never.
