IN FLAMES

- Colony Lyrics

in your world, the day is no threat
in my world, there is an absence of light
"genetic superior cell" controlled
by the fathomless and unbearable

a radical new Form of plastic and rage
biologically optimized
but with a strangling pulse

in your world, you find me worthy
in my world, I "parashoot" my life
a virtual drugstore populated
by the fathomless and unbearable
machine, meat and blood
in an intimate relationship
the new - superior -
more effective than all the preceding

when we can no longer
cry and reality is torn
then it's easy to forget
that the responsibility lies on us all

in your world, the night is no threat
in my world, the darkness
transforms to a vision of hell
populated by fathomless and unbearable

The music of Colony primarily displays emotional states through six main themes which include angst, despair, anger, reflection and social commentary. The song demonstrates two main themes through its exploration of alienation, despair, technological development and biological progress and shared human duties. The lyrics include themes about dystopian societies and futuristic technological advancements which create a feeling of hopelessness that might upset younger listeners.
