Two possibilities:
Either we are alone in the Universe
or we are not.
Both are equally terrifying.

-Arthur C. Clarke

Por mais que seja uma música de uma banda que gosta de mitologias nórdicas, até que essa letra realmente descreve muito bem a realidade do ser humano hoje em dia.

Slaves of Fear - Amon Amarth

They speak of love and tolerance,
And thrive on people's ignorance
To make you all slaves of fear.

They feed on your anxiety,
To build their gent society,
They kept you down for a thousand years.

They nurture prejudice and hate
Condemn the wars that they create
In the name of whatever god.

They gladly sacrifice your lives,
Increasing power is their vice,
Without regrets, they will spill your blood.
They're feeding you lies,
With calculated smiles,

Enslavement of the human mind
As long as you kneel to their authority.
Religion is what makes you blind

They're treating you as mindless fools,
They use you as obedient tools
It's time to set your spirit free

This world we can not tolerate,
It's time to seal all preachers fate,
And let them hang from odin's tree!
Your lives are a strain of egoistic chains
They lock you up and throw away the key!

Your souls are for sale,
And you're the ones who pay,
But still your never be set free!
They're feeding you lies,
With calculated smiles,

Enslavement of the human mind
As long as you kneel to their authority.
Religion is what makes you blind.
