At the Edge of Night
Dystopian Echoes: Unveiling Humanity's Dark Odyssey
Lyrics
Humanity is trembling as the centuries go by
Humanity is in a state of unrest and anxiety as time passes.
Our senses are augmented, our feelings left do die
Our senses are heightened, but our emotions are diminishing.
The gods have vanished long ago and not a grave remained
The gods have disappeared, leaving no trace behind.
Nature's drawn her last breath, we're proud of what we gained
Nature has died, and we take pride in our achievements.
Lost in deadly rapture and a blinding decadence
Caught in a destructive ecstasy and blinding moral decline.
Guns to do the talking, no more words with which to fence
Communication is now through violence; words are no longer effective.
Technology can never stop the starving of the poor
Technology cannot alleviate the hunger of the poor.
New diseases leaving only money as a cure
New diseases only leave money as a solution.
I see dark ages alight
The speaker foresees a dark period ahead.
Sun won't rise again for human kind
The sun symbolizes hope, but it won't rise for humanity.
Hark into the night
Listen attentively to the night.
Greed is the gear that will grind
Greed is the destructive force that will persist.
Mind and soul
Both the mind and soul are affected by the prevailing conditions.
Holding down the masses, best safety lies in fear
Keeping the masses subdued through instilling fear is the perceived safety measure.
Hunting down the rebels, shedding blood but not a tear
Hunting rebels without remorse or tears shed.
Streets drenched in neon lies through treason and deceit
Deceptive neon lights in the streets lead to betrayal and lies.
Led me to a darkened heart and its corrupted beat
This deception led the speaker to a corrupted heart with a tainted beat.
Standing at the edge of night I will bring the dawn
Standing at the edge of darkness, the speaker promises to bring the dawn.
The unseen hand to rule from shades, strings to lead you on
An unseen hand will rule from the shadows, manipulating like puppet strings.
A path to freedom and to past, where all control is gone
A path to freedom and the past, where all control is relinquished.
Wings of wax to rise again beneath a brighter sun
Using fragile means to rise again under a brighter sun.
I see dark ages alight
Reiteration of the foreseen dark ages.
Sun won't rise again for human kind
The sun won't bring hope to humanity again.
Hark into the night
Listening again to the night.
Greed is the gear that will grind
Greed remains the grinding force.
Mind and soul
The mind and soul continue to be affected.
I see dark ages alight
Reiteration of the dark ages.
Sun won't rise again for human kind
Hopeless future for humanity.
Hark into the night
Listening again to the night.
Greed is the gear that will grind
Greed persists as the grinding force.
Mind and soul
The mind and soul remain in jeopardy.
