Unnatural Selection Lyrics

Tom Englund:
We have to teach them all that we know
Their evolution moves far too slow
Expand their minds and reject compliance
Upgrade their knowledge, upload our science

Steve Lee:
This revolution will lead to their demise,
We should not make the same mistake twice
We're kept alive by artificial means
We've lost our souls to a world of machines

Jorn Lande: Listen to the warning 8X

Tom Englund:
We need to teach them to fight disease
They seem so helpless and need our expertise
I see them dying all across the globe
Their greatest foe is but a small microbe

Steve Lee:
The sudden change leads to overpopulation
Shifting the balance, destructive habitation
Killing a live biological invasion
Consuming it by ruthless exploitation

Jorn Lande: Can you see the fire in their eyes?
Bob Catley: Can you hear the anguish in their cries?
Jorn Lande: Can you see the beauty in their eyes?
Bob Catley: Can you sense the love within their hearts?
Jorn Lande: I can taste the freedom we once had
Bob Catley: I can touch their pain when they feel sad
Jorn Lande: I can smell the fragrance of the air
Bob Catley: I remember times we used to share

Hansi Kursch:
Don't want to live in a world that's dying
I want to die in a world that's living! 2X

Jorn Lande: Listen to the warning 8X

A chain on guilt around our neck
A planet straying in darkness
