Lamb Of God - In The Absence Of The Sacred lyrics

In The Absence Of The Sacred

Violence a natural reaction in a society whose advances are limited to its new technology;

different only in the current mode of destructive intent.

Date has replaced real life in this world, no hope for the stop of "progress."

Inevitable bio-link implant will replace the feel of human touch.

All memory surrogates downloaded bought and sold, no true sense

of self. Impending sensory death looming near.

A number, this is what you've become. Life digitized itemized commodified.

Ha, ha, ha, this is what you work for...
