Lyrics Silent as They Watch - Skeptik

Hidden out beyond the outskirts of the universe
Deep within a void where humankind will never dream to explore
Grew the tensions of opposing astral titans
Vanity and attention the premise and foundation for war
In a realm of metaphysical philosophy
Physical embodiments of deities at quarrel for fame
Drew bets and wagers on the weight of popularity
Mortals as their currency, the prize a title tied to a name

No
Care
For
The
Out
Come
Of
This world

Appetite for glory
Obedience their thirst
Architects of chaos
Silent as they watch
Appetite for glory
Obedience their thirst
Architects of chaos
Silent as they watch

Imposing influence on gullible mortals
Their stories infiltrated deep within a primitive form
And under teaching an uneducated populous
Legions and allegiances and keepers of religions were born
People spread the word of fabricated knowledge
At root with question less subservience to power conformed
Their existential authors, deified in fables sat and watched
As their dominions segregated, spread and conquered to form

No
Care
For
The
Out
Come
Of
This world

Appetite for glory
Obedience their thirst
Architects of chaos
Silent as they watch
Appetite for glory
Obedience their thirst
Architects of chaos
Silent as they watch

Silent as they watch
Silent as they watch

Traversing ages, generations and empires
The holy war is still a struggle on this spiraling rock
Disciples, ministries alike are still reliant on
Inherent human ignorance, repudiating alteration
While the minions of these gambling gods
Remain entrusting that their leaders will return to reclaim
A blinded eye is cast apart from the reality
Creators of the sacred hold no stake in this humanity's fate

Appetite for glory
Obedience their thirst
Architects of chaos
Silent as they watch
Appetite for glory
Obedience their thirst
Architects of chaos
Silent as they watch
