We vie with our neighbor Unremitting race under the gun Vile diamonds, for which we labor Madly under the Sun We purchase our glory by paying with our own Misery! We devour the biosphere to feed our vanity! We bought the advance with ruins We brought nothing here, so we take it all! Blindly we're striving after wind Greed leads us to the fall We sail across the oceans We fly above the stars In the name of a sick devotion Craving always for more! We pursue enchanting jails We sell our morals in a store! The roots of all this chaos That blooms inside our hearts! Vanitas vanitatum omnie vanitas!
