"Progress"

So they say it's getting better now,
And we're climbing ever higher up the scale
Soon controlling all conceivable solutions,
No one notices that all our efforts fail.

Progress, we are marching backward
Progress, as the captains of our fate
Progress, as we spiral downward
Progress, we defile and we desecrate

Calculating every possible obstruction,
Have to sacrifice a few along the way
Devolution from genetic degradation,
Seperation from Creator brought decay.

Progress, we are marching backward
Progress, as the captains of our fate
Progress, as we spiral downward
Progress, we destroy and we annihilate

Ideologies, moralities are pass,
It's said the concept of religion's obsolete
Something's missing in our picture of the future,
It seems our latest observations' incomplete.

Progress, we are marching backward
Progress, as the captains of our fate
Progress, as we spiral downward
Progress, we entangle and we complicate.
