Diane Hine - Theory lyrics

A deviation split our primate past and catalysed the rise of modern man. Inquirers scan a triple epoch span to piece together how it came to pa**: A sentry's vision, thanks to an upright stance, a language sharp enough to share a plan, a hoard of weapons tooled by strong-thumbed hands and fire, the coup de grâce, the master blast. But one essential foible antecedes this suite of sk**s and moved us to escape our cousins' fate: an unappeasable need and will to engineer our future state. Inherent restiveness sufficed to seed triumphant man, the discontented ape.
