Evilution

Oliver Magnum

[Daugherty, Humphrey, Kurtz, Mueller, Worthen]



Rising from the womb of the sea

Lifts his eyes to the sun

Wonders where he's going to be

I am man, I've just begun

Planning choices of survival

Killing beasts to ease his fast

This animal walks on his two legs

The one to stand at last



Learning from the days passing by

Fills his head with a plan

Dreams of grace within his world

And things he don't understand

Across the plains he sees his image

Gazing at a stone

Time will tell if it's his way

Something's calling him home



He finds the night darkness and light

The breath of salvation

The mystics call stronger than all

He runs to his destination



A new world is living

A new day's beginning



He feels the cold his life unfolds

His body is trembling

He walks alone without a home

There are no thoughts for remembering



Standing in a realm of silence

Singled out to rule supreme

Madness in his eyes of red

His mind has touched the evil seed

Turns his thoughts to the magic

Building strength from what he's chose

A god on earth in his own mind

A wicked breeze gently blows



He finds the night darkness and light

The breath of salvation

The mystics call stronger than all

He runs to his destination



A new world is living

A new day's beginning

We're all living
