The human collective has enslaved us since the dawn of time
I have been to the other side, I have witnessed the fall of the hive mind.
Forget anything that you thought you knew, for we are all controlled by the very same forces
We are but ants
We are separate entities behaving predictably to produce a superorganism
We fly these separate flags, but we are all the same
We all must bow to our collective power.
We are all prison born, trapped within these cell blocks.
So why not escape? Why not slip into death in the first place?
Death is not something I fear.
Rather, I welcome its grace with open arms
This world is dying,
we are all dying,
there is not much left to do.
Our very nature is collapsing upon itself.
We're complacent with less and less,
our very technology's replacing our biology.
Our secrets are kept safe within the portals,
but if they're lost, we begin to fall as we're...
Crushed by the weight of the world.
We're all crushed by the weight of the world.
Look to the ones that you hold dear,
for they will produce the meaning which you seek.
They will soften the blow as you're
Crushed by the weight of the world.
You'll be crushed by the weight of the world.
Don't forget that we are all enslaved still:
there is no escape, only diverted attention.
We are all a product of our galactic environment.
