Beyond The Embrace

Insect Song

Beyond The Embrace


Can you taste it on your lips 
The sweet mutation overflows 
Ever wanting to be like them 

Can you hear it in the air 
The sound of progress and its whore 
Infiltrating all we know 
All we know... 

The ants go marching one by one 
To a grave as yet undug 
A poison mind begets its host 

Now he stands unbroken 
The traveler sees his fate 
And still he wants to be like them 
...be like them 

Waiting in line for the vaccination 
Destination, annihilation 
Foreclosure by the fever that brings 
The truth behind the lyrics they sing 

You're forced to be like them?! 

Reencoding the DNA 
A new species still unnamed 
Distorted past gave birth to them 

From here on out it's in our blood 
And you know it won't be long 
Before you hear the insect song! 
...before you hear the insect song! 

Waiting in line for the vaccination 
Destination, annihilation 
Foreclosure by the fever that brings 
The truth behind the lyrics they sing.
