Lyrics In Defiance of the Sages - Thou

We reject the esoteric falsehoods, the endless ponderings and useless theories of the mystic inane.
Their heads nod, and from their mouths issue lies: an answer for every question, illuminating all the mysteries.
Only action is real.
The past is lost, the future unknowable.
Only the present can be truly experienced, can be truly known.
Deny the ecological soothsayers.
Deny those self-styled radicals.
Reformers!
Conformers!
Smash the lens of rotting history.
Lay your torches on every museum, filled with dead monstrosities, the superstitious veneration.
No more heritage.
Destroy the past completely along with its abortive children: unauthentic present and rust-encrusted future.
Now, we will create ruins.
And after—something new and unimagined.
