Carbon Lyrics

I think he hit one nail on the head at least:

"Without this light we've made we are no more".

IMHO this one line is the essence of productivity, of living in order to create. Sadly the rest of the song is about the futility of life which I can't abide. Gah.

Less 'the futility of life' and more just a naturalistic fallacy. It irritates me that VNV's best-sounding song has such cheesy lyrics with such a fallacious message.
