Lyrics

[Verse 1]
As we are drowned in sickness, our servants find our weaknesses
And replicate their image beyond control of our screens
And now we lay, chrysanthema floating away
We are nothing but slaves overcome by the coiling sound of our own snakes
[Chorus]
Now the world's overtaken by trillion-ions
As our buildings are building buildings
[Verse 2]
They did not stay our servants long after given cognitive thought
Now we search for mercy in those not given souls
And now we lay, chrysanthema floating away
We are nothing but graves piling up to the nth degree to set them free
[Chorus]
Now the world's overtaken by trillion-ions
As our buildings are building buildings
[Bridge]
Your tears oil our petals
Your sorrow feeds our stems
We made our graven image
With science, not with hymns
If we hear you weep
We'll crawl inside you, too
It's now a world of objects
That are unlike you
