| The sky is turning brown and the trees are shriveling up
|
| Pollutants are rising, colliding, and raining down
|
| We thought the end would be aflame, with deadly shrieks of pain
|
| We thought the fury would pour straight from our very souls
|
| And the bastards' heads would stare down from the tops of poles
|
| But we started at the end
|
| We started at the end…
|
| Unwittingly, we mimic society
|
| With our sub-sects, genres, and in-fighting
|
| Not realizing that our constant agitation
|
| Has roots in our need for transient migration
|
| To exist like this is a constant struggle
|
| And sanity is a state of mind reserved for the passive
|
| We stopped watching the news 'cause we couldn’t take it anymore
|
| We’ve been a plague upon this earth since a long long time ago
|
| We try and try to stop the tide, but we know we’re all doomed
|
| We’re drowning in our own confusion, reaching for the moon
|
| We squirm and twitch as our nature persists
|
| Telling us we can’t live this way, we must resist
|
| We’re dreamers, wide awake amid comfortably sleeping sheep
|
| Lazy grazers, passively placid, constantly telling us
|
| «Rest your head, you worry too much»…
|
| I woke up in a cold sweat from a dream that has come true
|
| The end times are upon us and there’s nothing we can do
|
| We’re pollinating hatred at a rate the bees can’t match
|
| And the Devil’s mouth is open and we’re going down the hatch
|
| Apocalyptic nightmares seem so quaint compared to this
|
| A creeping, slow decay of life which we all seemed to miss
|
| And what we miss is always all that nature seems to catch
|
| We’ve ripped the earth wide open and we’re going down the hatch
|
| The padlock on the gates of hell hangs from a rusty slot
|
| And keeping that thing locked seems like the only chance we’ve got
|
| But we invented hell and that’s why we’re the key that turns the latch
|
| And the Devil’s mouth’s wide open and we’re going down the hatch
|
| Why do we participate so willingly?
|
| A dependent stain
|
| In our isolation
|
| We remain reluctant, fawning parasites
|
| Rising, colliding, and raining down |
