lyrics

Something's wrong, it's awry, it's gone! Have we lost our faith? Have we seen all to be seen in life? Have the skies turned cold and gray? There's nothing left, no sun at dawn, no stars at night to see. Have we lived what’s worth to live in life, have our hearts turned cold and gray? Have we all but died today?

Is there nothing more to life than this? I know I hope for more. Have my eyes been blind to keys I've missed, need I simply open doors? Tell me this is not what's next for us, there's got to be more left in store for us. Please shake me! Please wake me! Please tell me this is not all that’s left.

Tell me what are these creatures of habit? How can they constantly consume? I can see that they are hollow and empty - the light's gone. Are these machines that resemble me? Am I subject to their master scheme? Then what happens when I am obsolete? I'm retired, put down six feet under the ground.

Is there nothing more to life than this? I know I hope for more. Have my eyes been blind to keys I've missed, need I simply open doors? Tell me this is not what's next for us, there's got to be more left in store for us. Please shake me! Please wake me! Please tell me this is not what we’ve become!

Always feeding, ever greedy, never quite sated. Always reaping, never ceasing, this is The Age of the Id. Always seeking, never sleeping, we are all slaves to The Id.
