Devolution

Rivers of Time
The rivers of time, ebb through our minds
Each progress we claim, watch a new course unwind
As the sea approaches, eyes on the horizon
And as water flows onwards, a subtle breeze hints the end
Of forged illusions of reality
Of fake delusions of morality
Devolution of humanity

For Peace
Gazing out from my window, I watch another sun rise from the clouds
Staring at the lives around me, is this the shore that we found?
Victims of a brutal crime
Profits of a brilliant mind

Conversation: New man
We fly across the skies, turn the day into night
We sweep across the lands, no limit to our might
Scouring the oceans, piecing the secrets of life
Builders like angels, beauty beyond delight
Cure for all diseases, immortality will arise
Evolving through the ages, eternity in our sight
Victims of a brutal crime
Profits of a brilliant mind

Choice
The water's rising around us drowning endeavors behind
The tide of end upon watching the fears unwind
The waves rock our boat, the anchors breaks away from its hold
The fork approaches near the choice between the shallow or deeper side

View
As the new man smiles away, he revels in the midday time
As the old man stares to the ground, he listens to twilight's chime
As the proud sun shines away, no end to the gleaming day
As the rain pours to the ground, it washes all the dreams away

Conversation Reprise: Old Man
We fly across the skies, playing God with our machines
We sweep across the lands, misguided in our beliefs
Scouring the oceans, following the blind
Building like angels, colossal in their disguise
Cure for all diseases, masking the actual plight
Evolving through the ages, the end in our sight
