Haken - A Cell Divides

Preserved in time, the insect comes alive
The amber falls away
The vector strikes
How can such a tiny wound cause me so much pain?

It’s the beauty in the flaw, the grace of imperfection
Now I’m twisted out of form by unnatural selection
A horrifying violation of a human form
A cell divides, then multiplies

A strange mutation overrides
And carbon copies into four
It’s the beauty in the flaw, the grace of imperfection
Now I’m twisted out of form by unnatural selection

Alien impostor, pretender
I’ll keep you safe now close to my heart
​It’s the beauty in the flaw, the grace of imperfection
Now I’m twisted out of form by unnatural selection
