The Agonist
Predator & Prayer
(We hear you, we don't care
We hear you, we don't care
We hear you, we don't care)
You sit and soak in your beliefs;
You cling to ice and think
You'll float away to your demise
And won't regret a thing
Allow me to shatter your fantasy
Your childhood dream
I'll crush your reality - the gabled roofs make it easy
I know you aren't kidding - I can't help but find it fitting!
We're the ones who hear your prayers
We won't answer, we don't care
So, let your demons in
This is where your life begins
I'm selfish and responsible
I want the credit and I'll take the blame
Earth created man, man created God - I'm not passive enough to allow some invention to take it all
I'm part of a macrocosm
That is the living Earth
And like a body or cell
It is my will to keep The Earth in health
We're the ones who hear your prayers
We won't answer, we don't care
So, let your demons in
This is how your life begins
(Care, Care, Care, Care, Care)
How are you so gullible?
So easily swayed?
I just want to shake you!
Break through your daze!
Our brains aren't sophisticated enough to understand the complexity and wonder of Nature!
God is a man-made invention to allocate power and responsibility to a tactile body!
We're the ones who hear your prayers
We won't answer, we don't care
So, let your demons in
This is when your life begins
Believers prefer to be right than correct
In an environment for change, turn left
Sight through mind is imagination
Hallucination mimics perception
Bridge the chasm between blindness and sight
The machinery of the brain generates the theater of the Mind
We hear you, we don't care
We hear you, we just don't care
