Dystopia - Now and Forever lyrics

Take a long look at the past to unlock a greater future Sift through the wreckage of failures In the hope to make things better Like more efficient ways to k** in the name of human progress How to and crush the will So that no one dares to question So what of the past and this "so called" better future? If past and future don't exist then where does that leave us? Lost in a quagmire of lies built upon the lies of before Echoing endless through time These legends of false perception Identities lie... based on ego and habit Beliefs k**. why are these institutions sacred? So what of the past and this "so called" better future? If past and future don't exist where the f** does that leave us? To bathe in the excrement of old and back in the "glory" of what is to be I hang my head in sorrow because the now is too disgusting to see The past does not exist The future is a myth Only the now remains The future is a myth Only the now remains Genocide was someone's now A tool to make things better Once a madman's torture. a vision that has ended Atrocities are mimicked, carried forth to this day Only names and faces have been changed
