The Agonist - Predator & Prayer

We hear you, we don't care
We hear you, we don't care
We hear you, we don't care


You sit and soak in your beliefs
You cling to ice and think
You'll float away to your demise
And won't regret a thing


Allow me to shatter your fantasy
Your childhood dream
I'll crush your reality
The gabled roofs make it easy


I know you aren't kidding
I can't help but find it fitting


We're the ones who hear your prayers
We won't answer, we don't care
So, let your demons in
This is where your life begins


I'm selfish and responsible. I want the credit and I'll take the blame. Earth created man, man created God - I'm not passive enough to allow some invention to take it all.


I'm part of a macrocosm
That is the living Earth
And like a body or cell
It is my will to keep the Earth in health


We're the ones who hear your prayers
We won't answer, we don't care
So, let your demons in
This is how your life begins


How are you so gullible?
So easily swayed?
I just want to shake you
Break through your daze


Our brains aren't sophisticated enough to understand the complexity and wonder of Nature. God is a man-made invention to allocate power and responsibility to a tacitile body.


We're the ones who hear your prayers
We won't answer, we don't care
So, let your demons in
This is when your life begins


Believers prefer to be right than correct
In an environment for change, turn left
Sight through mind is imagination
Hallucination mimics perception
Bridge the chasm between blindness and sight
The machinery of the brain generates the theater of the Mind


We hear you, we don't care
We hear you, we just don't care
