A million points of light ascending to the sky <br>Monuments in darkness standing watch until the sun will rise <br>Screaming to an emptiness of how we deified ourselves <br>With our hands over eyes, claiming all of creation. <br>What inspires in us this madness <br>That our existence should be defined <br>By a light that can’t be seen by anyone? <br>What inspires in us this madness <br>That our existence should be defined <br>By a light that we can’t see? <br><br>A million points of light ascending to the sky <br>Monuments in darkness standing watch until the sun will rise <br>I can’t see this all as progress <br>How did we come this far when we see ourselves as deities, <br>Claim nature for ourselves? <br>By our actions we betray the instincts in our race <br>By our blindness and stupidity <br>We kill everything, we kill everything. <br><br>Can someone see our self destruction? <br>Are we reminding ourselves that our existence is so delicate <br>That without this light we are no more? <br>That without this light we’ve made we are no more. <br><br>A million points of light ascending to the sky <br>Monuments in darkness standing watch until the sun will rise <br>We torch the earth until it bleeds, rain ashes from the sky <br>Just to make a light that no one can see <br>We cut the earth until it bleeds, rain ashes from the sky <br>Just to make a light that no one can see. <br>Just to make a light. Just to make a light <br>We kill everything <br>By our blindness and stupidity <br>We kill everything. <br><br>In a thousand years what will be our legacy a million lights that no one could see? <br><br>A million points of light.
