Prototype

[musique: daniel mongrain & pier-luc lampron]

[paroles: françois mongrain]

[l'acharnement et l'obstination de l'humain à la "création" et au "progrès" l'ont maintes fois mené à sa perte. tout ce dont il avait besoin pullullait sur cette terre fertile. par soif de pouvoir, il voulait plus, toujours plus. aujourd'hui, rien n'a changé...]

[dm-] men felt the flame`s licking

tamed it, risen to the sky

symbol of power

there was the silex dagger

tools from the wisest elders

at calvary`s dawn

the wheel is born

massive and rustic

from stone age`s i.q.

there's no more to say

about this era

those primal ages

of prototypes

things created

were all we needed

for the survival

of what they call humanity

revelations, not to be shared

aberations, nobody cares

here shines the other light

made of wires and glass

knowledge`s artifice

weapons again

gleaming white, staining red

rusting on battlefields

[dm+fm-] we dared make wings

[dm-] from wax to steel

from sky to hell

there's no more to say

about this era

bloodthirsty ages
