lyrics

Bear witness to the actions of man
Revealed in its purest form
The nature retracts as we devolve
We watch as the world burns by our own hands

There has to be more to this life than wake and repeat
Knowing the future is what reflects in the past

Maker, take me, for this is the end of my reality
What lies in wake?
What will I embrace?
Am I to take in the light or am I to descend?

We watch as the cycle continues
Over and over, again and again
Night falls, the seasons change
We watch as the world burns by our own hands

I'll count my losses
And still I suffer the same
I watch as the world burns by my hands

Like a machine, always the same, this life is never changing
Like cogs in the machine, life becomes routine
Good for nothing, expendable waste of life
Lie awake and dream of much more than this
Dream of a life worth living

Maker, take me, for this is the end of my reality
What lies in wake?
What will I embrace?
Am I to take in the light or am I to descend?

We watch as the cycle continues
Over and over, again and again
Night falls, the seasons change
We watch as the world burns by our own hands
