The Gravity Songtext
von 3rdegree

Before we start to prophesize
About impending doom
These are extraordinary times
If only for a few
I fear it now
The fate we cannot choose
Such awesome power
That no one could refuse

Hope in this undertaking
Hope that we will awaken
From the dream that urges us along
Hope to find the solutions
Hope to be more than human
In a future tailored for the strong


I am nothing but ones and zeros
And I am already primed
And you can slowly feel the gravity
As we approach a singularity
And maybe there will be no war
And maybe we′ll hunger no more

The body's a hotel for the mind
It′s something to be left behind
It's just a temporary shell
And thoughts are only energy
They're stored by so much memory
You only need a bigger cell

So overwhelming it defies
My unassisted brain
The law of entropy applies
It will not be contained

I fear it now
The fate we cannot choose
Such awful power
It′s only ours to lose


Hope in our home in the cloud
Hope we can see the way down
The uncanny valleys we must cross
Hope to find the solutions
Hope to be more than human
Be forever with our loved ones lost

Surely we can′t escape the gravity now
(Of the coming singularity)
Surely we can't escape the gravity now
(Of the coming singularity)
Surely we can′t escape the gravity

(Of the coming singularity)

Surely we can't escape the gravity
(Of the coming singularity)

Surely we can′t escape the gravity
(Of the coming singularity)
Surely we can't escape the gravity
(Of the coming singularity)
Surely we can′t escape the gravity
(Of the coming singularity)
Surely we can't escape the gravity
(Of the coming singularity)
Surely we can't escape the gravity
(Of the coming singularity)

Surely we can′t escape the gravity
(Of the coming singularity)
