Rust: Future Primitive

So for up the river
 So deep in the jungle
 So last, beyond rescue
 You reside in a place from which you cannot escape
 So last beyond rescue
 Your spirit, your soul put on hold
 Contempt for life fills the new void
 So last beyond rescue
 So far along you cannot recall
 The night the wolves claimed you
 They came under the cover of night
 Cloaked in good intentions
 That in time turned to dust
 When the primordial urge becomes the guiding logic
 Humanity turns to rust
 We cannot turn and run away
 We cannot change what is the nature of our ways
 Despite the lofty things we say
 It is ourselves we praise
 The higher we strife, the deeper we dig our grave
 Pride cometh before the fall
 And as principles are pushed out the door
 Values we choose after we decide what we want to justify
 We cannot turn and run away
 We cannot change what is the nature of our ways
 Despite the lofty things we say
 It is ourselves we praise
 The higher we strife, the deeper we dig our grave
 We do not wish to turn away
 We reject change. It is the nature of our ways
 Despite the lofty things we say
 It is ourselves we praise
 Trying to be god, we long ago last out way
 My god, what have we done
 Or is this your will done?
 Power emerges a shadow of the soul
 To roam the earth in serach of itself
 We do not wish to turn away
 We reject change. It is the nature of our ways
 Despite the lofty things we say
 It is ourselves we praise
 Trying to be god, we long ago last out way
 As the human mind escapes the sane
 We run away. Pretend we cannot stand the sight of pain
 But we cannot look away
 The appeal of horror is too great
 And we have ourselves to blame
 We have ourselves to blame
