1. CHARADE

Thousands of our years
A long journey from the cave
Still we have learned nothing
During the blood-shedding eons
Each stone thrown on others
Has lead us to regression

Seeking for gold and fame
Seeking for a better life
Good wife and smart kids
And friendly neighbors

We all have a role
And we all play the part
In this grandiose charade:
Mankind's evolution

With so many options to direct
The wheel of history elsewhere
Somebody thought it would be fun
To roll it up the hill
Twisted desire for self-torture
Derived from the devastating boredom
A dark moment that overshadows
The most sacred creation

Seeking for truth
In our lies
Seeking for hope
In our demise
Seeking for cure
In our bane
Seeking for food
In our waste

Thousands of our years
A long journey from the cave
Still we have learned nothing
During blood-shedding eons

Seeking for gold and fame
Seeking for a better life
Good wife and smart kids
And friendly neighbors

We all have a role
And we all play the part
In this grandiose charade:
Mankind's evolution
