Perpetual War Lyrics - Monstrosity

Stare in the face of this humanity; 

Frantic beings searching for their immortality. 

Hear the rage of the ending call 

And fight for life in the war on death. 

Perpetual War 

Fight 

Replenish mortal form 

Replaced with an artificial one. 

An illusion of continuance 

Life sustained only to be consumed. 

Strive to see the end of a mortal plague, 

Only to be defeated again. 

Discover cures, alter destiny 

Incubation of doom. 

Much more aggressively 

Burns in the fear of their passing on. 

Descent to darken oblivion 

To withstand the course of time, 

Is to deny the very fact that we die. 

Regression into the hands of disease we resist 

Fools imploring their Gods for regrets. 

Pray to idols for their sanity 

Yet ultimately reach submission. 

Into the hands of death we detest 

So surgery is performed. 

Open flesh for alteration 

To preserve our being. 

Pawns in perpetual war we engage. 

Stare in the face of this humanity 

Frantic beings searching for their immortality. 

Hear the rage of the ending call 

And fight for life in the perpetual war. 

The passion for the flesh 

And the burning desire we have to exist. 

Observe the weakness of our entity 

And in the quest for matter 

Become a casualty. 

Fight 

Replenish mortal form 

Replaced with an artificial one. 

An illusion of continuance 

Life sustained only to be consumed.
