lyrics

A lion, hunts a gazelle in order to survive
The lion, does not concern itself with reasons why

A drop in the ocean of time, era: holocene
Emerge as the species prime, what are we meant to be?

If there was a goal for our kind, a target to achieve, humanity would advance so far beyond our current status. But without a reason to come together as a united community we turn inwards and destroy ourselves, fighting for personal gain at the expense of each other, a true waste of the gift of conscious thought that only our species has.

Why can't we find our reason for being
Instead of blindly marching on
Burdened by our sentient nature
We're alone

Some need to believe there's more to come after we die
Others don't care what comes next as long as they're alive

Is there a true creator, watching from afar
Out there beyond our galaxy, has he left us to expire?

What is the point of our flesh and bones?
What's the need of being alive?
Our smallness in the universe
Is there a reason we should try?
