You/I/Us Songtext
von Ophidian Memory

Called to face
A change constraining
All that you were
To what you′ve become
What you have lost before
You'll surely lose again
In spite of the odds
You dug yourself in
Forcing our sins upon you

You are the only one
Whose future lay bare
We may be strong, but the strength of a pawn
Is limited to its masters hand
The semblance of choice
A fractalized road
To one convergence
You blur the line
A test of your will
Choosing a side has foiled the fate of the world we know


Just this time, I ask for sacrifice
You′ve been plunged into the end
No mortal deserves this grim Future
Find your courage
You must carry on, while I remain
The same

Fall from grace
A mutation consuming
All that I was
What have I become
This is a corpse
A shell for my soul
And thousands more
Dissonance in control
In the end
Horror and hope
Fused in a beacon of fire

I am the last seraph
I am the result
Of billions dead
Divested of control
Here to avenge sevenfold


I will do what's right
And consume your posture
The pure one
A paradox

I have gazed upon the void
Seen it breathe and crave, rejoice
Our alliance is the unique bond to grant us one more day
A reclamation primed
For battered spawn
We align our scorn
To the highest of all, the tyrant of perfection
Conclusions
Left to us

Polar forces clash
in struggle for an epic opus
A climax nullified
For the carnation
Of neglect
And regretful conceit
How is this the holy righteous end you seek?
We are created
Apparent in our perfection
Yet they are the image
Of your elder exquisite idol

Cry not for us
We had the option of death
Our choice was the route to dead gods
Contrasts aside
Parallel kismet of the chosen kind

Back and forth
The tides always shifting
Is it wise
To put our faith in hybrid progeny
What's left?
To trust
But the
Unknown
We are creators
With choice to alter destiny
And we have commandeered
The force of causal nature
Assuming control of our domain
Protectors and drivers
Sustaining the truth
It′s now You, I, Us
