Aeons of Ashes - Crown of Creation

born without a name
surrounded by cold lights and steel
predestined life in pain
wounds that only death will heal

mass-produced like machines
deprived of every dignity
used, abused
a blood-soaked reality

while we play God
their shredded siblings rot
there is no name
for what we became
CROWN OF CREATION
SUBDUE THE EARTH NOW
WORSHIP THE DEMON
THAT YOU GAVE BIRTH TO
CROWN OF CREATION
YOU HAVE DOMINION NOW
BUT CAN YOU WASH AWAY
THE BLOOD FROM YOUR HANDS

subdue the earth now…

a life not meant to live
degenerated (for our needs)
hide and we deceive
we fool ourselves about our deeds
we know that they can feel
we know that they know pain and fear
we know all this is real
we know but we don't want to hear

far from our cities
we don't want to see this
don't call me defeatist
you know we eat this
you know that we eat this

CROWN OF CREATION
SUBDUE THE EARTH NOW
WORSHIP THE DEMON
THAT YOU GAVE BIRTH TO
CROWN OF CREATION
YOU HAVE DOMINION NOW
YOU’LL NEVER WASH AWAY
THE BLOOD FROM YOUR HANDS

I am life
life that wants to live
in the midst of life
life that wants to live
