lyrics

Verse 1_
Reach for the heavens
It's always just beyond your grasp
Yet you build your towers
Forged with mortal sorcery

Modern day alchemist
Have you learned nothing from your past?
You can't change lead to gold
Or metal to life

Chorus 1_
Prideful...
Ignorant...
Feckless...
You'll spend your waking days
Toiling in futility

You ate from the tree of knowledge
In your greed you bit off more than you can chew
Damned by your gluttony
Forever doomed to choke on the seeds

Verse 2_
Like a cheap magician
Everyone already knows your tricks
You keep up the illusion
Chained to redundancy

Obsessed with your own pretension
Ambition has made you blind
The truth is a bitter fruit
Your efforts only serve to entertain

Chorus 2_
Prideful...
Ignorant...
Feckless...
You'll spend your waking days
Toiling in futility

You ate from the tree of knowledge
In your greed you bit off more than you can chew
Damned by your gluttony
You are...

FOREVER DOOMED TO CHOKE ON THE SEEDS

[Breakdown 1]

Try as you might
You will never reach

Try as you might
You will never reach
Divinity
