SKYCLAD
"When God Logs-Off"

Insomnia taunts me, I turned on my TV
Rapt in the arms of a galaxy spiral
Heard a seashell hid its secret as well
This nexus is key to our planets survival

One precious moment it all became clear
Brain cloud haze lifted by euphoric fear
To the unknown my mind's eye directed
Beheld every mote in creation connected

No more hereafter, eugenics our master
Sectarist lecture, mere witless hubris
Humanity's blunder was ceasing to wonder
Why are we here, what's the meaning of this

A virtual church without actual sages
Souls under scrutiny, rats in glass cages
Enigmas deciphered are no longer needed
Lost words of warning unheard or unheeded

We're all hooked-up to the vast karmic internet
Each of our souls on the end of a fibre
One sacred fact that we can't download yet
The truth is we share the same service provider

One precious moment it all became clear
Brain cloud haze lifted by euphoric fear
To the unknown my mind's eye directed
Beheld every mote in creation connected

We're all hooked-up to the vast karmic internet
Each of our souls on the end of a fibre
One sacred fact that we can't download yet
The truth is we share the same service provider

The atheist plays whilst the orthodox pray
Fundamentalists freak out as humanists scoff
A headlong collision 'twixt science and religion
There'll be hell to pay when one day God logs off
