Blink of an Eye

歌詞

Sacrifice paradise Ignorance, malice, ambition combined Second prize don't entice Indoctrinated we stand alongside Enterprise in disguise And our eyes, and our eyes begin to wander the sky Telling lies, alibis And we cry, and we cry as they start to multiply This sleep here in front of me Six miles from side to side A caprice of geology Standing mountain high The wall whispers no apology Doesn't answer why The landscape changes radically As it's reaching for the sky And no one can pass by No matter how you try And if they let you in You can't come out again The flood will descend from here And everything will fall An arrogant decision Our destiny for all No serum intended here No antidote in mind All the species all the plants From the beginning of all time All gone away in the blink of an eye Sacrifice paradise Ignorance, malice, ambition combined Second prize don't entice Indoctrinated we stand alongside Enterprise in disguise And our eyes, and our eyes begin to wander the sky Telling lies, alibis And we cry, and we cry as they start to multiply From the comfort of leather chairs Turn jungles into fields A segregated conference Outsiders forced to yield And those who cannot wield a pen Or haven't got a voice Are all labeled incompetent And they're all bereft of choice And no one will be spared There's vermin in the air And they don't even care This will reach everywhere The fire ignited here Will spread from coast to coast The center of attention Yet overlooked by most No island, no refuge made These ultraviolet waves Infiltrating everything And everyone inside All gone away in the blink of an eye
