Lyrics;
Do you suppose..
Animals regard us as moral beings??
An animal which could speak would say:
"Humanity is a prejudice...Of which we at least are free"

"To live alone, one must be an animal or a god"

Do you suppose...that in the absense of your god,
Are we not straying as through an infinite nothing?
Do we not feel the icy breath of empty space?

"To live alone, one must be an animal or a god"

Yet in truth, humankind deserves to be neither.
An alien race constructing a hell all its own.
The dust of dust will live and suffer and die alone....ALONE
