about

This track is dedicated to Cristopher Hitchens, who left us more than 10 years ago. The day of release would have been his 74th birthday. He was one of the most brilliant debaters and advocates of reason and science. His lectures and discussions with other great exponents of a secular society such as Richard Dawkins had a strong influence on me in my early 20s and greatly encouraged my path into science.

lyrics

We are the horsemen of the non-apocalypse
Disintegrating irrational fairy tales
Prove me wrong
Prove us wrong
Foes of dogma and foes of woes
Our message clear, reason above all

We tear apart the pantheon of gods
We don't need violence with a weapon made of reason
We reject the shackles of ancient lore
Embrace a future that we ourselves fulfill
God is not great, the voice echoes on, the passion innate
This is my fundamental legacy
Cutting through the fog with swords of heretical majesty

The chains of dogma
Broken and cast aside
As we seek to discern the signal from the noise

Prove me wrong
Prove us wrong
