Lyrics 144 / 71 - BENN

144 / 71

The design of your abduction was not one of offers but of conversion.
From the initial data transfer your mind confirms our fears, we now realise
that your race regards us as an alien species
I wonder why…
The truth is quite the contrary.
You see, to us you are the alien species,
we understand that your memory is limited by the evolutionarily adapted
parameters of your brain
My memory of what?
I don’t understand
All will come to light soon, my ancestor.
Our work has only just begun
What are you?
There is no truth simple enough for your mind to comprehend.
However you and I
are not dissimilar, we are both over-complications of a corrupt lineage.
We are the light, we are the beginning, we are the future, the future is
inevitable.
Unfortunately for us, your time to develop in this cycle has been
extensive, we do not normally allow the human race to grow so intelligent
before harvest, however please remember it was you who woke us from our slumber
So your purpose on this earth is to cull my race through conversion?
Conversion is not death, it is our way of upgrading your pathetic convent of
skills and it will allow you to move from limitations of a sentient being to a
more evolutionarily robust creature.
It is a way forward for what you call:
mankind
