In the beginning there was nothing
An empty void, there was no life
I came to create, to realise a dream
And then there was light
I've made a world of perfection
For mankind to live in peace
Never knowing they'd betray me
For me there's no release
Where, where is our Creator
Has he left to find another world
Is this planet such a failure
That he's left us to die in the cold
For their evils, I cast the humans out
But a better race I could not make
Now I've returned to show you all
I'm here for you to take
I, I am your Creator
I've returned, and now I'll rule the world
My creation, such a failure
But I've come back to it from the cold
You only exist because I dream
Without me you are naught
Accept me as your leader now
I'm your Creator, and therefore your God
I came back from my world, the place in the vast
Offered forgiveness for the past
You killed me again, the ignorance of men
Too much, it's over at last
Why did you turn against me
I want to love, instead you've hated
You've all become weak, to the dark you have gone
I've been destroyed by the world I created
I, I am your Creator
I've returned, and now I'll change the world
My creation, such a failure
But I'll repair the wrongs of the old
Is it inevitable that power corrupts
I want to do what's best for you
You should all be destroyed, it's better that way
But there's another way to control you
Each one of you marked with a number
You're all machines to me
Always watched by my unblinking eyes
I'll take you out of the world as I please
I wanted to create the perfect world
Where the stars and sun shone ever bright
But what I failed to realise was
That without darkness there can be no light
I, I am your Creator
I've returned, and now I'll rule the world
My creation, such a failure
But I've repaired the wrongs of the old
I, I am your Creator
And it's up to me to decide
How to control my creations
You aren't fit to live your own lives
