about

While humans may have constructed society and governments, the fact that we are still nothing more than animals wandering in the wild remains the same.

lyrics

As you elevate
yourself so conveniently far above all creatures...
Have you failed to notice how
You share so many of their very features?
While you may dub your quaint, little rules as "laws"
Your self-delusion stands chief among your flaws...

Don't be fooled by all the symmetry--
We have always lived in this same reality;
In the wilderness of steel and stone,
Each of us is on our own...

Might makes Right --
The Law of the Jungle still applies...
Fight or Flight --
They're still the only options you've got when it comes down to who dies...

In the end, Man is just another beast...
But when he stands among the herd he can be fleeced...
To the Victor go the spoils of war--
And let the vanquished be destroyed forevermore!

It's kill or be killed...
So let blood be spilled...
May your enemies quake with fear
At any time that you draw near...

For all the things that Man has sought to dominate,
He will still pretend that what he's done is "fate"...
We no longer praise the Cave Bear or great Zeus...
Why should any god be kept alive beyond its use?
As now we enter the Age of Fire...

Yes Might Makes Right
The Law of the Jungle still applies
Fight of Flight
'Cause in the end every single one of us is going to die
