Lyrics
"Intentions Lost"
(Lyrics: M. Novak and C. Webster - Music: M. Novak)
The failure of the Codex an unexpected event
The corruption of society has come from within
The Guardian worries about the human descent
His lack of control left humans in a tail spin
The intention of the Codex was to evolve mankind
Intentions lost
To provide the knowledge to guide the study
Intentions lost
The Codex no longer accepted as designed
The intentions were lost the result turned bloody
Chorus:
Intentions lost - who is to blame
Intentions lost - will there be shame
Intentions lost - will it go down in flame
Will the new direction bring the Guardian fame
The Codex was corrupted reduced to a list of ten
They called them commandments enforced by the sword
Intentions lost
The new laws brought fear again and again
Designed to make the elite adored.
The elites used greed and violence in religion and trade
Intentions lost
To question them was met with retribution
Intentions lost
The Guardian lost control the Codex was betrayed
The new list of ten corrupted human evolution
Chorus:
The failure of the Codex an unexpected event
The corruption of society has come from within
Intentions lost
The Codex no longer accepted as designed
The intentions were lost it’s the end of mankind
