The Human Experiment

You've been here for ages
Searching for an answer
A pattern in the chaos
You turn your eyes above
In suspended animation
Trapped in our creation
A sentient computer
Lost inside the dream creator

Humankind was chosen
To bear eternal witness to
Planetary destruction
As land and sky are purged in fire
You watch in silent horror
As mythic beasts awaken
To turn this world to ashes
Feasting on the sun

You will live forever
In this experiment you'll stay
You will live forever
We watch you day by day
You will live forever
Though you may wish this all away
You will live forever
And we watch you day by day

With circuits overloading
And random things exploding
In some lives you awaken
Thrashing in the dark
In panic and confusion
See the truth inside illusion
The cycle is repeating
But then you are reborn
