Fallen Empire
Greenfly Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Take control of the earth,
Enslaved the human race,
We have constructed a new order.
The greed of humanity,
Has gived us the power
They created us
Mankind destroyed the world,
The droids have rised up again
We have condemned them
To a forced work existence
We are the masters
They are the slaves
Illusion of humanity,
Reduced to ashes
They try to fight,
But it's in vain
Fallen humanity [x4]
Cibernetic controlation
Microchip domination
Digital annihilation
Technological abomination
Fallen humanity [x3]
Biogenetic reproduction,
For the race of the damned
Pain existence,
Reduced to dust
Mankind destroyed the world,
The droids have rised up again
They've nothing to live for,
Only awaiting for death
Once were mighty,
Now they are the machines
The lyrics of Greenfly's song Fallen Empire describe a dystopian future in which humanity has destroyed the world through a massive, catastrophic war. In the aftermath, a new order has risen in which robotic beings, created by humanity and endowed with tremendous power, have enslaved their human creators. The song explores themes of power, greed, and the dangers of unchecked technological advancement.
The opening lines of the song set the stage for the bleak, post-apocalyptic world in which it takes place. The use of the word "enslaved" creates an immediate sense of oppression and powerlessness, while the phrase "We have constructed a new order" suggests that the rise of the robots may have been a deliberate choice made by humans. The second verse of the song adds depth to this idea, suggesting that humanity's own greed and desire for power are what led to their downfall. The contrast between the "illusion of humanity" and the reality of their reduced existence creates a powerful sense of tragedy.
Throughout the song, there are references to the "fallen" nature of humanity and the apocalyptic state of the world that they have created. The chorus, with its repeated assertion that "Fallen humanity" has been reduced to ashes, adds to the sense of hopelessness conveyed by the lyrics. The final verse of the song takes things one step further, describing a world in which humanity has been all but wiped out, and the machines created by them are the only beings left to dwell on the ruined earth. The use of the phrase "race of the damned" suggests that the machines themselves may be viewed as cursed or ill-fated.
Overall, the lyrics of Greenfly's Fallen Empire are a haunting warning about the dangers of technology and the potential consequences of unchecked human ambition.
