Lyrics:

(all spoken)

What's the purpose in these pointless killings?
Why do we have to make people suffer?
If they're not worthy of life, are we?
Taking it from them without the decency to show our faces.

What's the point in destorying each other?
Why do we do this to ourselves?
We're only human, but not humane,
We're wiping ourselves out, what's the point?

Bridge - Nightmares... they come and go,
         The only thing about this one,
         Is we're already awake,
         Lost in confusion, lost within ourselves.

What's the point in these selfish deaths?
Are we doing it to satisfy our own needs?
Is it just greed that we're imprisoned in?
A prison where we may never escape?

Why are our minds so easily corrupted and influenced?
Is it just us as humans, or is just us as animals?
Do we even stop to think about the victim?
Do we ever feel guilt, or regret, the need to repent?

BRIDGE

Chorus - Why... why do we feel the need, the need to play God,
         Why... in the process, do we have to take people to him?
         Why... why is it people have to die, isn't this just proof,
         That surely we haven't evolved yet.

Why is it so hard to understand, that killing people is wrong?
We're not savages, are we? So why does this continue?
Surely when we take the lives of others, 
We're not worthy of one ourselves?

Is it a feeling of rejection, the need to be noticed?
Is it boredom, the craving for that adrenaline rush?
For whatever reason, we still continue,
I ask myself, are we really the most intelligent race on the Earth?
