Evil Devolution lyrics

Forever of the Stars:

The future's doored ingress! What lies beyond?

One of you, ah, survived so much!

Are you man enough to force this door upon its golden hinge?

You crave the answer, but can you bear the truth?

The door... The future...

FUTUREMAN:

Our hope's dissolved

For man's evolved into another state of being

Have we 'progressed' beyond the need of feeling?

A cyber-brain

The last in the chain of man/machine alliance

Have we become the victims of our science?

Evil devolution!

Is this an illusion?

Out here in space

Human humiliation!

This mutation

Of our human race

Is this the end?

Will we transcend the need for human pleasures?

Will we abandon all our earthly treasures?

Will mankind yield

On the battlefield of natural selection

To an inorganic digital perfection?

Evil devolution!

Is this an illusion?

Out here in space

Human humiliation!

This mutation

Of our human race
