Mt. Olympus
I feel the walls close around me
I’ll enjoy my cell
The lost vision of tomorrow
Doesn’t fit so well
Playing God’s his new fixation
Pass another law
Techno man’s his own solution
Creation has its flaw
(Chorus)
When you look up to the sky
Do you call on him?
Or do you fantasize
His powers end
Soon he will cast aside
His image all
Imitations pass you by
Kneel down and crawl
He thinks he’s the new messiah
What’s weak he’ll make strong
It’s His new version of salvation
It won’t take too long
Spreads his word by air and fiber
Monitor his thoughts
Makes believers of his message
He can do no wrong
(Repeat Chorus)
Plotting man’s history
One more chance at reality
Fills their minds with lies and deception
It’s a better world
Without invention there’s no future
Bow your head and mourn
Replacing faith with temptation
The writing’s on the wall
His powers of persuasion
The leaders write you off
(Repeat Chorus)
