As if the title didn't make it obvious, this song is partially about the anime series Neon Genesis Evangelion. Several elements tie in directly with the show and things that happen or are said within it. Maybe one day someone will make a video using it. I'd love to see that.
lyrics
Bleeding nightmare
Of unfelt guilt
Synthesized it
Evolutionary stilt
Fifteen years
Of cautious peace
Man's distrust
Has not decreased
Mankind's last hope
That we revere
Deep underground
Within the sphere
We changed the course
Synthetic life
Not made by God
But by our might
We were so careless
Our pride was burnt
Some lessons were not
Meant to be learnt
So make your choice
Do or do not
Will to survive
Or have you forgot?
Beginning and end Are all the same
But you must ask Who is to blame?
Born from Adam Raised by Eve
The tangled webs Of which we weave
Hear our words For they ring true
It will be the End of you
We leave this note To you, our sons
That playing God Should not be done
Fate of destruction
Joy of rebirth
What have you done
To prove your worth?
Seize the future
Brave your fears
When there is action
Meaning appears
So to make our mark
On this world of ours
We called out to the Moon
To the Earth and the Stars
And we screamed to the skies
"What have we done?!"
For the Devil's work
Should have never been done
But when we all
Are forgotten
Eternal proof
Of where we've been
In mankind's hands
We cannot trust
We crumble now
And Fade To Dust
Alpha and Omega Are both the same
But we had to ask Is God to blame?
Spawned from Adam Cursed by Eve
The tangled webs That we perceive
Hear these words The blade rings true
It shall be the End of you
We leave these words To you, our sons
That playing God Shall not be done
Means and ends
Just simple words
But what they mean
Is still unheard
Still regretting
All we've done
Annihilation
Nova sun
To take it back
The clock rewind
But we cannot
Our fates resigned
Our fathers' words
We listened not
Mother Nature's plan
Her vengeance wrought
But we deserved it
We went too far
We should have known
What the limits are
And now the ending
To what we planned
We stand here silent
On the sand
Start and finish Is all the same
But the question's there Are we to blame?
Torn from Adam Raped by Eve
Our faith in God Was so naive
Now heed these words For they bleed true
This has been the End of you
So leave this message To you, our sons
That playing God Will not be done
And so I leave you Message intact
T'was all a lie And that's a fact
Don't bother now It's too late for me
We'll live somehow In infamy
