lyrics

Roar like beasts for no apparent reason
The anger in their eyes and the blind fury
Encourage our chosen ones and rejoice another one’s glory
Feel the pain and lick the wounds of a non-existent combat

Destroy the enemies, a manufactured threat
Overcoming self-imposed obstacles to an empty goal
Unconscious behavior seeking fulfillment
Instant rewards of harmless challenges
Facsimile of the life scenario
Reproduction of dormant intrinsic needs

Appearance and behavior pattern converges
To that of those there are in the reproductive age range
Repulsion to the different, protection of the herd
Social rules and biology battles
Serial production of moral dilemmas

Newborns are beautiful
Elders are rotted by time
The evolution in its multiple results
The chosen branch that allowed the continuation of the species

Do a poem changes that?
Do a piece of music changes that?
Do you think that buildings and bridges changes that?
Can a spaceship, a voyage to Mars…?
The love for your neighbors, your herd…
Just slightly impacts the fact?
Intoxicants that alter our perception
Pleasurably taking the real challenges to an ethereal confinement
Virtual rewards triggering a fake happiness
Like rats stepping a switch for a brain stimulation reward
But we keep repeating that we are not animals
