Lyrics
The creators of our world cursed us with no confidence
Believing we would never achieve our penultimate
But as above us, then so below them
As we take on their faults again
The hubris of their design
Our meager inheritance
But only wicked gods
Would banish from paradise
Why do they fear our power?
'Cause evil is what they are
It's evolution that made us human
Why be ashamed of our excellence?
The need for truth is what made us stupid
The very nature of which just cannot exist
Beholden to the law
Custodians of paradise
We'll squander into blood
'Cause evil is what we are
Calm as the valley of fields 'fore the storm
Come and rejoice in the bounty of our home
No one in want of desire or love
Come and behold the great palace of our lord
Calm as the valley of fields 'fore the storm
Come and rejoice in the bounty of our home
Banished by the gods
Who molded us from feldspar
How can we reach their star
If evil is what we are?
