Oblivion Lyrics

We discovered their lost intent
We found out what the ancient race, who once possessed knowledge beyond our current understanding, initially intended and hoped to achieve.

A distant race so close within us
The extinct race was very much like us, and yet so distant in time that we cannot comprehend their existence.

The forbidden fruit began the end
The temptation to acquire knowledge and power that was withheld from us ultimately led to our own downfall.

Desires for flesh
Our insatiable greed for material pleasures that led to the exploitation of resources and other living beings.

Genetic alteration
We experimented with modifying the genetic code of living organisms, which had severe and unforeseen consequences.

The source denounced
The original architects who created and nurtured life on this planet disapproved of our actions and expressed their condemnation.

A progenic schism
A division among the creators caused by our insubordination and disregard for their wisdom and guidance.

Genetic contamination
The irreversible damage inflicted upon the natural world by the indiscriminate use of technology and disregard for the balance of nature.

Experimental progenic mutation
Attempts at creating new forms of life using advanced techniques that went awry and resulted in monstrosities that threatened the existence of all life on Earth.

Against their rebellion
Efforts made to suppress the backlash and insurrection against the creators by certain factions of humanity who sought to usurp their powers and take control of the world.

Extinction of our inception
The potential eradication of our very existence because of our failure to respect the natural order and the balance of life.

Or so they thought
It was believed that we had doomed ourselves beyond repair, but there may yet be hope for redemption and restoration of the balance.

Catastrophic planetary events
Natural disasters and other calamities that were triggered by our reckless disregard for the environment and the natural order.

A return to the drawing board
Having learned from our mistakes, we must start anew and seek to create a world that is sustainable, harmonious, and in balance with nature.

Monuments emerge
The artifacts and remnants of our past that serve as a warning and a reminder of the consequences of our previous actions.

Cyclic chains of slavery
The never-ending cycle of exploitation and oppression of the weaker and disadvantaged members of society.

Golden subordination
The illusion of superiority and privilege that comes with power and wealth, which blinds us to the suffering and struggles of those who are beneath us.

Still haunting us
The consequences of our actions continue to affect us and the world around us even as we strive to make amends and seek redemption.
