about

A Momentary Brightness depicts a grim and not-so-distant future where humanity will have little precious resources left. An overcrowded civilization living on a ruined planet with nothing to eat, but the one thing in abundance ... other people. This song utters a dark foreboding of what may happen if humanity as a whole continues down the path it has currently chosen, where the value of life, all life, gives way to greed!

lyrics

We are the ones
We are the fodder
To feed the young
Your sons and Daughters
We are the ones
Lambs to the slaughter
We are the ones
We are the ones

How long will it be
Until we're consumed by you and me?
How long do we have to survive?
We are the fault in our design
Rend the old
Rend the weak
Put the useless ones to sleep
Will there be anyone left alive?
We are running out of time

We are the ones
But death will not come
If we find we find another way
We are the fall
Or death to us all
If we don't find another way

Tell me how long
How long will it be
Until we are your fuel

We are the ones
We are the ones
