Here we are in our dying shell of existence
Not yet lived and nothing learned
So arrogant to assume our own intelligence
As we repeat the same mistakes over and over again
Holding on to the hope of perfection
The more we have the more we want
Reaching for the stars but we’ll never have it all
Crawling closer to our eventual downfall
Told to believe such absurdities
Making us commit these atrocities
Religion the fuel and fire that burned the witch
Now all that prevents the poor from killing the rich
We are the fractured race
Murder, starvation, torture and rape
Times may change but people remain the same
Vengeful time bombs covered in wounds and sores
Treated with the sacrificial rites of war
All the pain we cause and time we waste
Humanity, the fractured race
To assume the universe was designed with humanity in mind
So arrogant, so stupid, so blind
The story of our past and future remain the same
An oblivious humanity slowly withers away
Taught to believe little lies since we’re born
To later believe the greater ones of the world
Justice, religion and equality
Adapted to comply with human greed
Murder, starvation, torture and rape
Times may change but people remain the same
Vengeful time bombs covered in wounds and sores
Treated with the sacrificial rites of war
All the pain we cause and time we waste
Humanity, the fractured race
