God Complex Lyrics

A series of words to hide a lesson unlearned

Distract and delay the way you prefer

Human/inhuman

The tether is severed

The othering starts

This twisted endeavour

The pain is forever

An insignificant island nation with ideas above its station

Are you noticing a pattern?

Leaps of logic come dyed in the wool

Terminally deluded

It's only yourselves you manage to fool

A nation waits

Breath baited

In the shadow of an obsolete weapon

A nation waits

Breath baited

We hold a blunt knife to the throat of a colossus

Slide down the slope, getting ever closer

A supernatural veil for a darker reality

Their words hide a nuclear wind

Like a breeze through chimes

Before the storm

Before the crossed line

A series of words to hide a lesson unlearned

Distract and delay the way you prefer

Human/inhuman

The tether is severed

The othering starts

This twisted endeavour

The pain is forever

You see yourself as the hero

You're the only one

Barrels (Gun?) to the head in mutual respect

The threat rests in the hand not the gun

Does it disappoint you to know your version of evil doesn't exist?

Just people in power hiding what's real

You have no idea where this path will end

Is it worse to imagine that maybe you do

After all you're only human

An insignificant island nation with ideas above its station

Are you noticing a pattern?

Leaps of logic come dyed in the wool

Only yourselves you fooled

Does it make it easier to accept

To imagine great horns, gnashing teeth, sharp claws, black eyes

Absolute power

Dooms us all in the end

You may only see a rotten flower

But it sits atop a stem

Roots and soil

And to get to where its got to

It's needed water to drink

Air to breathe

And sunlight on which to feed
