Genius Annotation

English title: “And now I ask for time to Time and He answers me… I have none!”.

The last song on Darwin! continues the themes of the previous “Miserere alla storia”: man is impotent towards the slowly passing of time.

Any progress through history is vain, everything will always inevitably come to an end, we may be as advanced as we want but we’ll always be impotent towards the laws of Time.

Moreover: our future extinction is already written in our nature, and all the centuries of human evolution haven’t really changed us; we still (like all the other animals) follow our survival instinct.

History is cyclical, humanity never changes, we’re doomed to repeat the same errors generation after generation.

Eternal wheel, heavy wheel

Slow in your creaking

You're squashing

My bones and my will

Mechanism made of crosses

With your puppets attached

Hanging from your spokes

And spinning with your cogs, goes

Goes the wheel goes

It doesn't miss a beat

Changes the faces and nothing changes

The old semen of fathers

I shouted loudly my rage

But I agonize, me too, me too

Ah giant wheel

So why you make me think

If in your spinning

My mind then you'll stop

Goes the wheel goes

It doesn't miss a beat
