Divine Machinery

"Today politicians from the Protection Party gave impassioned speeches advocating for sustained funding of geoengineering,
bioengineering, and spacecraft development. The most hot-button question right now is: have humans done enough, and do they need to
let nature take its course again? Or will loosening their grip only lead to apocalypse?"
Dead of the summer but we knew how to revive it
When you see the end you learn how to survive it
Don't you listen to those who keep it private
Isn't it true that we all share the same climate
So if you hear different, know that it's fake
Know that they're dissidents for dissonance's sake
How many more lives is it gonna take?
How many more lies is it gonna take?
Don't tell me that we're better off
That we didn't touch a little of the great beyond
When we filled the sky with diamond and we saved them all (All)
Do you remember bringing back the deemed extinct
The feeling when the first raindrop fell on your skin
Do you remember pushing Earth
The way it started spinning
Do you remember playing God
Do you remember winning
Why are we searching for peace when we know where to find it
Are we a people of love or a people of riots
And if you hear different, if you hear that it’s fate
If they say all we can do is sit back and wait
“How many more rules do we have to break?”
Know that nothing’s off limits when everything is at stake
Don't tell me that we're better off
That we didn't touch a little of the great beyond
When we filled the sky with diamond and we saved them all
Do you remember bringing back the deemed extinct
The feeling when the first raindrop fell on your skin
Do you remember pushing Earth
The way it started spinning
Do you remember playing God
Do you remember winning
Do you remember
Making waves and moving tides
Shaping land to stop hurricanes from taking lives
The children seeing snow falling down for the first time
An airplane overhead painting white across the sky
Do you remember
Me, telling you for years and years
That is all is only lost if you lose yourself to fear
That if you sacrifice, give your all, and give it here
Then we can reach out, grab the stars, and bring them near
Do you remember
Do you remember playing God?
