The Professor - Sapientia Mundi Lyrics

I turn my gaze up to the sky
I can see the stars no more
The radiant light and a glowing haze
Dispells the night perennial day
The neon and the argon burn
Phosphorescent filament glow
A fire burns to be snuffed out

The glories of the human mind
Displace the splendour of divine
With the sledge of arrogance
Fortified steel new pestilence

Unholy rites that left our ploughs broken
Awake at night we barely are half living
Blinding red eyes are signs of souls taken
Giving our lives to dreams we animate

I turn my gaze up to the sky
I can see the clouds no more
Nor do the dragons fly today
But made of steel they'll roar away
The lights ablaze voice in a box
Mesmerising picture moves
Distract a thousand plights

The glories of the human mind
Destroyed by slavery to time
Technologic mind asleep
Cellular dreams the devil reaps

Unholy rites that left our ploughs broken
Awake at night we barely are half living
Blinding red eyes are signs of souls taken
Giving our lives to dreams we animate
